An intriguing yet completely comprehensible read!!! One of this year's best!

Geoff loses his wife, Penny, to cancer. His boss wants him to quit. He sells his house. Geoff decides that he has nothing to lose and plans REVENGE on his despicable boss, Adam. What lengths Geoff goes to accomplish this (or not) are quite imaginative and entertaining!

A wonderful read that I HIGHLY RECOMMEND !!!

Many Thanks to BooksGoSocial and NetGalley for a top of the line suspense/thriller!

This is a brilliant book with a unique idea and fascinating storyline. Loved it from page 1 to the end. I have discussed this book with several people and how clever technologically some people can be. Look forward to reading more from Mr/Mrs Calder.

I found this difficult to engage with at the start with a lot of names thrown at you.
Thankfully I persevered because the story pulls you in and becomes a real page turner.
Although far fetched in places this is well worth a read.

Payback by Chris Calder.
A good read with likeable characters. Found it a little slow but I read it. Cant say I had a favourite character as I wasn't sure about them. 4*.
