    About this ebook

    Jason Elder is a hard working computer programmer, trying to survive in a political world. Despite his best efforts, he gets fired. He then has to undergo harassment by the more political employees.
    After his firing, Jason wanders around the beach area, where he lives, trying to find out what he can. He then meets Heather, a La Jolla lady.
    During a conversation with Heather, Jason reveals that he's going to sue his former employer for the continuing harassment that he he's undergoing.
    Heather suggests that she might have a job lead that will prove a better solution than suing Jason's former employer.
    Heather and Jason then begin a relationship.
    Jason then gets a new job, mainly because of a referral by Heather. Jason generates a demo program for his new employer and manages to out compete his old employer for a major government contract. The result is that any number of people at his old employer then get laud off or fired.
    The relationship between Heather and Jason continues.
    Jason then discovers that Heather is the granddaughter of a man called the General. The General wields enormous political power. Jason has an interview with the General. The interview goes very well.
    Jason then realizes that, with the backing of the General, he can do very well.
    Heather realizes that Jason will do very well in business, but can he live in Heather's social world?
    The interplay between Heather, Jason, the General and several very wealthy La Jolla people then becomes the focus of the story.

    R. Richard

    I'm the co-author, with Sunset Thomas, of Anatomy of An Adult Film.I have 48 novels and over 299 short stories currently published.I spent my early years in the part of Los Angeles known as the South Central. I was known as Whi' Boy, which was sufficient to identify me in that place. I'm a skilled Kung Fu player, using a system that I learned from a Korean I knew only as 'Pak.' It would be easier to tell you the places that Pak wasn't wanted by the police, rather than the places where he was wanted by the police. Pak's Kung Fu system, augmented by some bits and pieces from some Chinese practitioners is quick and effective, or I wouldn't be alive today.My early education was mostly obtained by stealing books from the public library (I always returned them and the Librarian even began to provide me with reading lists.) I did go to high schools, but I never really learned anything there. I eventually graduated from the University of California at Los Angeles, UCLA, with a degree in mathematics.I work as a Systems Analyst and also make a part of my living as a professional gambler (legal in Nevada.) I write science fiction and erotica. My published novels are:Anatomy of An Adult Film (With Sunset Thomas)1. Second Chance: God Killer2. Second Chance: Sky Pirate3. Second Chance: Scroll Seeker4.
