    All he wanted was a regular job...
        Paul Trouble may not hold the most exciting job in the world as a pencil pusher and finance controller in Strom Industries' Mergers and Acquisitions department. But for the former elite soldier and CIA spy, still mentally recovering from the injury that forced him out of the spy-game, this is his shot at a normal life in a normal job with normal problems.
        
        One hundred million dollars missing...
        Until his boss asks Paul to investigate the mystery of one hundred million dollars missing. The plan is simple: Ask a few questions, make people nervous, and see what happens. 
        
        Turning into a deadly cat and mouse game...
        What first looks like an inside job soon turns into murder and mayhem where pencil and stapler are exchanged with knives and bullets, giving a literal meaning to the term "troubleshooter." 
        
        Troubleshooter is the first Corporate thriller in the ongoing "Troubleshooter" series. You can find the follow up novels "Troublemaker", "Troubleseeker", and "Pieces of Trouble" in all major formats at most eBook sellers.
