This week we announce our latest suspense/thriller author, Joseph Finder whose new book PARANOIA will be in stores on January 20th. As the story opens we meet Adam Cassidy, a low-level employee at a high-tech corporation who hates his job. When he manipulates the system to do something nice for a friend, he finds himself charged with a crime.
