    About this ebook

    Inspired by a series of whistleblowers over the last few years, Scott and Jennifer decide the work they've been doing for their nefarious employers needs to be brought into the light.
    But the company is far more prepared, and willing to go further than either of them could have ever expected, to make sure the whistle stays silent.

    Lee Isserow

    Lee Isserow is an award-winning comedy writer and filmmaker, with over fifteen years spent trawling the back streets and dark alleys of the entertainment industry. He's pretty sure he has some traits of autism, because he's been constantly working and obscenely prolific for the entire duration, writing over a hundred screenplays, many of which he's adapting into forthcoming books, because very few people are willing to turn them into movies. For now. He lives in Liverpool, England because he accidentally bought a house there. He's not quite sure how that happened - but assumes part of that is because he used to drink a lot.

      Whistleblowers are all the rage. That's how Scott put it to Jennifer, with a wry smile and a glint in his eye. She wasn't finding it funny.
