Secrets in the Steel

A Gwen Kingsman Novel, Book 1

By: Wendy Lou King

Narrated by: Jesse Fister

Gwen Kingsman is the best young project manager in the business, but a spectacular professional failure has left her confidence shattered. A job offer in the high desert town of St. George, Utah, for a mysterious biotech firm named Interfusion working with the feds and the state, promises a fresh start—and a massive paycheck. The project: fast-track a $300 million state-of-the-art biomedical research facility. But as Gwen navigates the world of complex construction, her instincts tell her something is dangerously wrong.

The plans are sparse, the deadlines impossible, and the government and company officials are not forthcoming. What begins as a question of bureaucratic oversight quickly spirals into a terrifying conspiracy. The facility is being built for research far more volatile than she was told. Gwen must decide if she is willing to risk her career and maybe even her life to expose a web of lies and stop a catastrophe before it’s too late.

Super Fun Thriller with Twists and Heart

I loved it! I listened to it in just 4 days- couldn’t put it down! There was so much wonderful detail and the plot was full of epic twists and turns. I loved Gwen and her crew of people who were ready to do the right thing even when it could cost them everything. Can’t wait for book 2!
