Cheryl Tobin is the new CEO of a large aerospace company. She hasn’t been on the job for long when she discovers that some of her colleagues are involved in massive corruption to win contracts. So, her idea of inviting them all to a remote island for a brainstorming session does not sound very clever, especially as they know that she knows what’s going on. Still, it does allow Joseph Finder to create an enjoyable page-turner about corporate morality that involves guns, knives and BlackBerrys. If you’re a nervous flyer, though, this may not be the best book to buy at the airport, as it shows how airplane-makers make planes and money.
