A Silent Violence

by Rob Sargeant

A Silent Violence Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Synopsis:

When Liam, an Irish rock superstar, mails out over a hundred invitations to some of the richest and poorest people in the world, inviting them to attend an all-expenses-paid banquet in Toronto, he inadvertently sparks the interest of the CIA. An ambitious surveillance expert, Brad, is dispatched to investigate this strange get-together to discover why the meeting is surrounded by so much secrecy. He and his sub-agents monitor the movements of the guests, which include an AIDS orphan from the Philippines, a Tanzanian young man, a famous Italian opera singer, a Texas oil tycoon, an aging Hollywood actress, and a billionaire American computer software genius. After learning the truth, Brad has to decide if he will release it to the rest of the world in an exclusive news story, or if he will keep it a secret, and walk away a less wealthy, but much better person.
