The Telecom Takeover by Beverly Winter

A swirling ride through corporate espionage and the dark depths of company loyalty, The Telecom Takeover by Beverly Winter is an intriguing cross of thrills and character-driven drama, featuring two unlikely sleuths and a cast of decidedly unsubtle villains. The story moves quickly, but the prose is too simplistic at times, with overly explicit motives and descriptions, as well as some superfluous dialogue. A firm editorial pen to trim the narrative fat and add spice to the increasingly intense storyline would help elevate the novel, but as it stands, this is an authentic, behind-the-scenes look at corporate malfeasance mixed with a compelling high-stakes thriller.
