The story had potential but failed in execution for me.
Michael Tanner is the owner or a slowly failing specialty coffee shop. On the way home from a business trip his lap top gets switched with S. Robbins. S. Robbins turns out to be Senator Susan Robbins. The Senator has been up to no good though. She has downloaded highly sensitive information onto her laptop and then left a sticky note with her password on it.
My main problems are right at the very start. I don’t care who you are, if you lost your computer, especially an expensive one, and your business isn’t doing so hot, you would care. Second, a senator no matter how technically inept would not leave a password on the computer she/he was carting around especially if they knew they had overly sensitive information that should never have been downloaded in the first place. Third, Tanner knew the initial reach out was a lie and probably from The Senators office, and he pulled up all the contact info for the Senator, so why not contact himself and solve the laptop problem and the novel be over in 100 pages?
Just seems like the author got a little lost in the way details worked out. It was an interesting story line could have been executed in a better way. The initial blunders were hard for me to overcome.
