Product Description
“Die Hard meets The Office”
Seattle billionaire and software titan Jeff Pepper couldn’t have chosen a worse day to check up on the research project he’s been funding at the university for more than a decade. When gunmen move in, seizing control of the building in their search for a previously unknown weapon, Jeff is caught in the middle of a nerve-wracking hostage situation, one in which he is an all-too-valuable pawn. As tensions mount and the body count rises, his only hopes for survival include Nick, a disillusioned office worker trapped in another part of the building, and Brick Ransom, a crack shot SWAT team member with an inconvenient trigger finger and a wry sense of humor. Working with Brick and other law-enforcement officials outside, Nick must guide a special team through the locked-down facility and help them save as many lives as possible, while Jeff Pepper uses every negotiating trick up his sleeve to see that he and his fellow captives make it out alive.

What Reviewers are Saying:
“This book will grab you and pull you into all of the action, comedy, and romance that we all crave as readers! Plus, how can you go wrong with that title!”
“I found myself constantly guessing as to what was going to happen next. Intense scenes in the book are balanced with believable dialogue and humorous moments that you can identify with. There's plenty of action and the exploding monkeys do not disappoint.”
“With some great twists and turns the adventure never seems to stop. Very entertaining read. I'm looking forward to reading more of [Attebery’s] books.”
“If you have ever had a job that you couldn't stand going to - this is a must read. Attebery takes the reader on a journey of what started off as a normal day that devolves into utter chaos breaking loose throughout the campus. There are funny moments from the minds of the characters!”
