    I fell in love with audiobooks thanks to this book. I'd grabbed it because it was a Crichton novel, and I'd just read Jurassic Park and a few others. I happened upon an edition at my public library read by John Lithgow, and he was absolutely amazing--able to switch smoothly from his "reader" voice to voice the female, Hispanic lawyer character. Unbelievable.

    If you see that version at a bookseller or at your library, it's worth buying/checking out just for his performance alone.

"Expertly crafted, ingenious and absorbing." The Philadelphia Inquirer.
The #1 Bestseller by the author of "Jurassic Park." As he did in "Rising Sun," Crichton focuses on a topic as close as today's newspaper headlines: sexual harassment.
Tom Sanders is an up-and-coming executive at the computer firm DigiCom. When his new boss turns out to be a woman who is both his former lover and a business rival, Sanders determines to be professional. But after a closed-door meeting, the woman accuses him of sexual harassment. It's her word against his, and suddenly Sanders finds himself caught in a nightmarish web of deceit in which he is branded as the villian. As he scrambles to save his career and his reputation, Sanders uncovers an electronic trail into DigiCom's secrets . . . and the cynical scheme devised to bring him down.
