Family Secrets

📖 The Scoop

When June Morrison, CEO of Lindell Industries, asked Jake Badger to find out why her identical twin sister, Jane, walked away from her family, her enormous wealth, and her privileged life thirty years before, she had no idea that she was putting not only Jake's life in danger but her own as well. She had no idea she was setting in motion events that would change her life and her company in ways she could not yet imagine. As Jake begins to talk with people at Lindell Industries who had worked with Jane thirty years before, someone within the 120 billion dollar electronics and weapons company sends people to warn Jake off the case. Undaunted by threats, Jake continues his inquiry. As he discovers corporate indiscretions and cover-ups, the situation becomes dangerous, escalating from thugs threatening him to assassins trying to kill him. A witness is murdered, and even June Morrison becomes a target. Clearly, someone wants the secrets of the past to remain secret. Discovering who is behind the assassination attempts and what the corporate secrets have to do with Jane's leaving thirty years before, takes Jake from the corporate offices of Lindell Industries in Century City, California, to a McDonalds in Falls Church, Virginia, to the campuses of Harvard and Yale Universities, and to the home of young man in Tempe, Arizona, who cleans swimming pools for a living. What family secrets will Jake uncover as he rummages through the dirty laundry of one of the most powerful families in the country?
