Plus or Minus Two Percent
Action, murder, intrigue, torment and anguish, and just enough detail to supply the imagination without getting bogged down.

James Demetrian never imagined that earning a college diploma and beginning a career would trap him in a lifetime of subterfuge. After receiving a degree in electrical engineering James starts his employment in the energy industry at a large Gulf Coast refinery. While settling into his new life he becomes suspicious that some of his coworkers and bosses may be involved in illicit endeavors that use the refinery business as cover. The mysterious death of a colleague and a windfall of money are among the developments that James encounters in his quest for the truth.

James' best efforts to steer clear of enlistment are no match for the organization behind the subversive activity, and its tentacles steadily reach deeper into his life. There is no sanctuary or safe haven, and no way to distinguish a collaborator from a trusted friend. The more he learns the more the mystery intensifies, and by trying to unravel the intricate maze of secrets he puts his own life and the lives of his loved ones at risk. The question is not whether James will find the answers he's searching for, it's what the consequences will be. The key is undoubtedly in the significance of one clue: Plus or Minus Two Percent.

About the Author

John is a Pennsylvania Native and grew up in the small city of Monessen on the Monongahela River. He has moved around the country for his higher education and career, but has always considered Pennsylvania his home and currently resides there.

After high school John received a degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Cincinnati and has worked in heavy industry for most of his career. After 10 years in oil refining on the Texas Gulf Coast he transitioned to the electrical power industry where he still works today, primarily in power plant management.

John’s first book Plus or Minus Two Percent is a reality based fiction, and he drew on his personal experiences in engineering and working in industrial settings to develop his story and characters.

His second book is a sequel and is expected to be ready for publication late in 2018.
