The Grey Stone Conspiracy

The Grey Stone Conspiracy opens with what a reader might assume is a typical office romance. Beyond the obvious interpretation of a love story, lies a subplot that depicts the less than noble practices in the world of business. Mitchell lays the groundwork for a plan of investor fraud and manipulation, which is discovered through the relationship Karen and Sam are trying to build with each other.

The reader is also given an opportunity to see the reluctance people often experience after being involved in a failed relationship. Sam and Karen are reaching out to each other yet both find grounds for hesitation. Karen’s fear of rejection in conjunction with Sam’s emotional isolation makes their relationship difficult to establish.

Sam and his friend Bobby have stumbled into a world of extortion and corruption that began decades ago in a place far removed from their home in Atlanta. They are forced to take action, which leads them to discover a truth they would rather have not known. With their lives in danger, Sam is forced to discover a rather unpleasant truth about his actions. During a confrontation, he must confront the darker impulses that lurk beneath the surface of his personality.
