About this ebook
Rumors are rife that terrorists will strike at the upcoming G8 summit in Montreal. As security agencies scramble to stop the plot, the Canadian diplomatic team rushes to finalize its preparations for the summit. The last thing they need is Justin West, the boss's obnoxious nephew, who's just looking to have fun. Will his disruptions prove fatal? Or is something else going on?

ROBERT POWER was born in Canada, but raised and educated in the United States. He stayed in university so long, Berkeley eventually gave him a PhD to get rid of him. Working as a consultant from home, he drove his wife crazy until he took up writing fiction in his too-ample spare time. Neither he nor his wife know what they were thinking when they decided to have four children, but they’re happy they do--most days. They live in southern Ontario.

Her beauty opened many doors, but it was her powerful intellect and unsurpassed ambition that drove her success. All work and no play,
