Disclosure by Michael Crichton

The thriller that opened a new chapter in the sex wars

Thomas Sanders' world collapses in just 24 hours - he is passed over for promotion, his new woman boss comes on to him during a drink after work, then, the next morning, he learns that she has accused him of sexually harassing her. She demands his transfer, thereby threatening to cut him off from the millions he would have made when his high-tech company was floated on the stock market.

What follows next makes Disclosure the most talked about novel for decades.
