New Corporate Thriller Spins a Deadly Tale about Highways of the Future

SPERRYVILLE, Va. - March 28, 2018 - PRLog -- "Deadly Highway" (ISBN 9781543482263, Xlibris 2018), is the latest release from novelist J. Stewart Willis. When a major tech company receives a solicitation from the Department of Transportation for a bid on the initial phase of replacing the existing interstate highway system, the pressure is on.  Winning the bid for the Super Highway system will be a significant coup for the company. With everything riding on this contract, stress levels rise and things get quickly out of control as the characters plunge headfirst into ruthless competition, and back-stabbing cover-ups - and that's just at the office. Add a little blackmail, drugs, adultery and murder to the mix and you end up with a sensational tale of drama, suspense and intrigue.

Early reviews show readers are enthralled with "Deadly Highway." Sheri Hoyte with Reader Views says, "As if corporate politics and all the drama it entails wasn't enough, this story also includes all the juicy bits that make for an engaging thriller…" She goes on to state, "The author captures the toxicity of the corporate environment with company politics, ethical quandaries, cut-throat manipulations and intimidation from every angle."

Willis develops his novels based around concepts that are not ordinarily addressed in novels with issues relevant in the world today.  Taking inspiration from his life experiences, and the unlimited capacity of technological advances, Stewart weaves thought-provoking, "what-if" scenarios into drop-dead, engaging narrative.
