Retribution: “deserved punishment for evil done”
Webster’s New World Dictionary, 1966 Edition
David Coleman drove to his office that fateful Friday reflecting on his good fortune—great job, beautiful wife and promising future. Within a few short hours, everything he values will be placed at risk. The events that follow take him to the brink of a life or death crisis.
Day of Retribution is the story of three executives fighting to save their honor, a corporation maneuvering to cover up a crime, and the unique relationship shared by David and his wife, Leah. David is caught between a boss, Landon Walters, who hates him, and a subordinate, Alex Carter, who sees David as the single obstacle standing in the way of his own success. Landon would like nothing better than to see David replaced by his friend, Alex, and Alex will do whatever it takes to make that happen. A victim of childhood abuse, Alex is a master of deception who struggles daily to control his unrelenting anger.
One man will survive with his job intact. Another will lose both face and position. And still another will not survive at all.
Day of Retribution explores the rewards of success as well as the devastation of failed ambitions within the framework of a tough, profit-driven corporation. This story is told with passion, honesty, and sensitivity—without concern for political correctness.
