Book Review The CEO by Peter Ralph

The CEO
Title: The CEO

Author: Peter Ralph 

Stars: 4 out of 5 

Review:
A well written story that will have you wondering just how much damage a ruthless individual can do to others and not care. The storyline progresses very well and will keep the reader's interest to the last page. I love a story where justice is served especially when it is done with a twist.

I have rated this book 4 stars.

I obtained this book from Amazon in Kindle format.
Thank You Frank 

Synopsis: 
Douglas Aspine knew that being CEO of a public company was twenty times more lucrative than winning the lottery.
He was forty-five and time was running out when fate dealt him an unexpected opportunity. The company was old, staid and well-respected but it was under performing and Aspine was determined to turn it around no matter who he had to crush. 

Soon he was at war with the company's employees, unions, suppliers, financiers and co-directors but nothing was going to stop him. Not his chairman, not his wife, not his mistress, not the anonymous death threats and definitely not the press. Aspine could almost taste the glory, the riches and peer recognition he'd craved for so long. He knew he had countless detractors and enemies who he contemptuously labelled "losers"and paid no heed to.
Would this prove to be a miscalculation of monumental proportions or would he prevail?
