He's a browbeaten bookkeeper by day. A bestselling kingmaker by night. And he just might get away with it... if he doesn't accidentally become Employee of the Month.
Ted Ward is a man of simple pleasures: he likes his coffee hot, his weekends free, and his head down. As a mid-level coordinator at Sahara Corp-the world's largest, hungriest online retailer-his biggest ambition is to survive the day without being noticed.
Ted Ward is a man of simple pleasures: he likes his coffee hot, his weekends free, and his head down. As a mid-level coordinator at Sahara Corp-the world's largest, hungriest online retailer-his biggest ambition is to survive the day without being noticed.
But when Ted stumbles upon a glitch in the company's almighty sales algorithm, he doesn't file a bug report. He builds a backdoor.
Teaming up with Phil, a brilliant but perpetually anxious IT wizard, Ted launches The Gold Club. It's a secret, invite-only service that can turn any starving artist into a global bestseller with a single click.
Suddenly, Ted isn't just a cog in the machine; he's the Ghost in the Shell. He's making dreams come true for struggling writers, musicians, and creators, all while skimming a consulting fee right off the top. Life is good. The coffee tastes better. And he's finally caught the eye of Til Nune, the struggling musician of his dreams.
But there's a problem with playing Robin Hood in a corporate glass tower: The Sheriff of Nottingham is watching.
Dennis Hamm, Sahara's paranoid and power-hungry CEO, knows someone is messing with his metrics. He's unleashed his pitbull of a security chief to hunt down the rogue element, and the net is tightening.
Now, Ted has to juggle a budding romance built on little white lies, a partner who is hyperventilating in the server room, and a heist that has grown way too big to hide.
Can Ted pull off the ultimate exit strategy before the corporate hammer falls? Or will his golden ticket turn into a one-way trip to federal prison?
Perfect for fans of Office Space, Ocean's Eleven, and anyone who has ever wanted to stick it to the boss. Why Readers Are Joining The Gold Club:
