Sunday Salon Readings - Private Sector

Being I was given this book, I was surprised to learn the author Brian Haig is a brother of General Alexander Haig. hhhmm... thinking already about instant notoriety, my thoughts said could Private Sector be that good? Well once again an unknown author to me has proved his effervescent style with a good measure of self-critical wittiness can make for a great novel.

Army lawyer Sean Drummond is participating in an exchange program between the military and the private sector. He is assigned to a high-billing, high profile Washington, DC law firm. Sean's sarcastic personality makes him as unwelcome in the new firm as he was in the army.

The number one client, a behemoth telecom with massive defense contracts, has ties to a serial killer and a large international crime ring. Sean knows something is amiss when his predecessor and his current girlfriend is murdered.

Now Sean must survive in the uppity lawyer culture long enough to discover why his firm and its top client are willing to kill anyone who gets in their way. Along with the murders there are national security issues, graft, corruption and assassinations problems.

A very entertaining read for my sundaysalon pleasures. I do recommend this book to you!

What a beautiful shot of autumn leaves! I took this near my home in Tennessee. My Sunday Salon read was short, but you can see why.
