This is the second book of the Sedona O'Hala Mystery series. Having solved her first case of corporate crime, Standfrost Huntington wants her to take on a second corporate investigation.

She will be a techie at Acetel a computer equipment support corporation. Sedona needs to piece together the mismatched clues as well as dodge bullets while working on her love life.

I enjoyed reading this story and following the clues. ( )

Crooks are coming out of the woodwork and family troubles are stewing. Sedona needs to keep her sanity intact, piece together mismatched clues and dodge more than one stray bullet. If she can manage all of that, maybe she’ll have time to figure out whether her love life stands a chance.

After working with him on a previous contract Sedona O'Hala should know better than to accept a dinner engagement with Steve Huntington. Especially when he wants her to leave her current managerial job at Strandfrost to take up another undercover one at Acetel services. There are rumours rampant about mismanagement at Acetel and Steve needs Sedona to become one of the employees and find out what is really going on. Their dinner where he is to tell her all turns into a disaster when two goons turn up looking for Steve and he makes a quick exit leaving Sedona to pay the bill.
Just as Maria's first Sedona O'Hala book EXECUTIVE LUNCH struck a chord with me, so did EXECUTIVE RETENTION. Someone appears to be reducing the company's profitability, and not even retrenchments are restoring it. I am very well aware of the pre-occupation with the balance sheet. I thoroughly enjoyed the plot of this latest offering. ( )

Acknowledgements

A big thank you: To my first readers who were brave enough to tell me that I wasn't yet good enough--yes Mom, I mean you. Tom, thanks to your creativity, I have an awesome cover; never mind when I will use it, I will use it. April, none of my covers would succeed without your advice.

To Paula Lomas, Holly and Cousin John, Renee and Cathey for encouraging me. To Marty for advice on the proper role and manners of geeks; to the real Turbo for being a great boss and friend. To Joan and LeAnn for being my safety net. To John Levitt for being a fabulously good author, but more importantly, a generous person. Jim Chambers, you too fit in that category.

To Miss Snark - May your pail be filled with gin, and may your clients set fire to your enthusiasm--never your hair.

To all the readers who took a chance on my work, especially those of you on the Amazon Comedic Forum, Kindleboards and Mobileread. Y'all know how to keep a writer going. Old Granny--you left my first review on Amazon and it still makes my day when I think of it. Thank you.

To my husband: for everything. Without you and family, why would I bother?
