Tallahassee, FL Author Publishes Thriller Novel

The Fi$cal Agent, a new book by John M. Whiddon, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

After spending fourteen agonizing months recuperating in a rehabilitation facility in Switzerland due to a foiled assassination attempt, Webb Espy, renowned systems expert, former university professor, public servant, best-selling author, and multimillionaire returns home to the Florida Panhandle to restart his life. Invigorated and once again challenged with renewed purpose and focus due to therapeutic insights and refreshed romantic interests, Espy returns home and is faced with updated information linked to the attempt on his life and unanticipated consequences that force his participation towards closure. To this end, Espy, initially a reluctant participant in a world of international conspiracy and intrigue discovers an unknown heinous and evil adversary. In a role reversal, Espy is no longer hunted and is enticed to become the hunter. Once more teamed with several members of his cadre of the talented support cast, former adversaries, as well as an unintentional new cerebral weapon, the predator role takes him into the bowels of the invisible government, and forces choices, compromises, and conciliations that will challenge his moral core. THE FI$CAL AGENT is the second part sequel to THE SUNSHINE Shenanigan, which will ultimately be a trilogy. The final part is a work in progress and has yet to be titled.
