Synopsis

Nick Conover, the son of a factory worker, is the CEO of a major corporation in a company town. Once the most admired man in Fenwick, Michigan, Nick - having presided over massive layoffs - is now the most despised. A single parent since the recent death of his wife, he's struggling to insulate his ten-year-old daughter and angry sixteen-year-old son from the town's hostility. Then his family is threatened by a nameless stalker, events spin quickly out of control - and suddenly Nick is faced with a dead body and damning circumstances. To protect his family, he must cover up the homicide but a police investigator with an agenda of her own is determined to connect Nick to the homicide. Nick, in the meantime, begins to unravel a web of intrigue within his own corporation ...and, with everything he spent his life working for hanging in the balance, Nick Conover discovers that life at the top is just one small step away from a long plunge to the bottom.

Book Overview: NO HIDING PLACE, a deft mix of compelling story, distinctive narrative voice and full-bodied characterisation, once again proves Finder to be a master of the modern thriller. Finder has established an extremely successful reputation for writing novels about corporate intrigue. His previous novel, PARANOIA, was one the sensations of 2004. A movie of his earlier novel HIGH CRIMES, starring Ashley Judd and Morgan Freeman, grossed $41 million for Fox. Paramount Pictures has bought rights to PARANOIA for a high-six figures for Lorenzo di Bonaventura to produce. Joseph Finder has received excellent reviews: 'PARANOIA combines a fresh voice, terrific characters, and high-octane suspense. Finder catapults himself into the front ranks of contemporary writers' Harlan Coben 'The corporate thriller of the year ... This pacy, gripping novel presents a devastating view of American business, with unscrupulous CEOs, devious managers and backstabbing colleagues ... It is compulsive reading and the end is stunning and absolutely unguessable' Sunday Telegraph.
