Total Control by David Baldacci
Goodreads summary: "Sidney Archer has the
world. A husband she loves. A job at which she excels, and a cherished
young daughter. Then, as a plane plummets into the Virginia countryside,
everything changes. And suddenly there is no one whom Sidney Archer can
trust. Jason Archer is a rising young executive at Triton Global, the
world's leading technology conglomerate. Determined to give his family
the best of everything, Archer has secretly entered into a deadly game
of cat and mouse. He is about to disappear - leaving behind a wife who
must sort out his lies from his truths, an aircrash investigation team
that wants to know why the plane he was ticketed on suddenly fell from
the sky, and a veteran FBI agent who wants to know it all. From Seattle
to Washington, D.C., from New Orleans to Maine, the hunt for Jason
Archer follows a trail as complex as the world he lived and worked in - a
world of enormously powerful computers, a multimillion-dollar takeover
deal, titanic financial standoffs, artificial intelligence, and the
Internet. With brilliant minds colliding, ruthless men waging battles of
intimidation, rainmakers going toe-to-toe with killers, and security
specialists making a fortune trying to plug the holes, the startling
truth behind Jason Archer's disappearance explodes into a sinister plot
with the murder of the country's single most powerful individual. And
soon Archer's wife, Sidney, aided by the relentless and sharp-eyed FBI
agent Lee Sawyer, will plunge straight into the violence that is leaving
behind a trail of dead bodies and shocking, exposed secrets".
Excellent read - fast paced and kept me guessing. Had a hard time putting it down. I've always like Baldacci and this was one of his earlier books.
