About this listen
Rachel Gibbs closes a major chapter in her life and embarks on a promising new career as media liaison and spokesperson at the Empowerment Agency. Yet, a year after being on the job, Rachel discovers her power-hungry boss and CEO of the agency, Roger Williams, is a criminal. Roger’s cruel actions catch up with him when his neglectful and thieving ways become the focus of an FBI investigation. A disgraced ex-employee and her former assistant become embroiled in Williams’ war against the Feds and his enemies.
This battle spills out of the agency and into each victim’s life, affecting everyone close to them and with deadly consequences. Some will do anything to come out on top, while others become unwitting victims in a war they can’t avoid, and a seemingly inscrutable Williams will stop at nothing to ensure his own survival. The whirlwind of love, friendship, and infidelity complicating each character’s personal lives are nothing compared to the inevitable hurricane of danger that threatens to destroy them completely.

On an August night in 1986, Jennifer Levin left a Manhattan bar with Robert Chambers. The next morning, her strangled, battered body was found in Central Park. Linda Wolfe goes beyond the headlines and media hype to recreate a story of a teenager whose immigrant mother was determined to make a better life for her son, a petty thief and drug user who'd been expelled from the best schools. Wasted powerfully depicts the freewheeling 1980s society that spawned a generation steeped in violence and the fatal impulses that drove Robert Chambers to kill.

Suspenseful page-turner!
This book is a suspenseful page-turner and so engaging I was sad when it ended. The author’s writing is so illustrative that each scene she describes is visible and fresh in one’s mind - like a movie. I love it and recommend.
