AL MOMENTO ESAURITO

Rising Sun : A Novel by Michael Crichton (2015, Compact Disc, Unabridged edition)

A riveting thriller of corporate intrigue and cutthroat competition between American and Japanese business interests On the forty-fifth floor of the Nakamoto tower in downtown Los Angeles--the new American headquarters of the immense Japanese conglomerate--a grand opening celebration is in full swing. On the forty-sixth floor, in an empty conference room, the corpse of a beautiful young woman is discovered. The investigation immediately becomes a headlong chase through a twisting maze of industrial intrigue, a no-holds-barred conflict in which control of a vital American technology is the fiercely coveted prize--and in which the Japanese saying "business is war" takes on a terrifying reality. Rising Sun was made into a film, starring Sean Connery. "As well built a thrill machine as a suspense novel can be." -- The New York Times Book Review "A grand maze of plot twists... Crichton's gift for spinning a timely yarn is going to be enough, once again, to serve a current tenant of the bestseller list with an eviction notice." -- New York Daily News
