Chasing Dr. Banks - Paperback

by John Otto Spengler (Author)

Dr. Noah Banks is a young professor at Delray University, a large private institution located near the banks of the Arkansas River. Driven to learn the hidden truth behind suspicious activities in his college, and the dark secrets that haunt his university, he pushes too far and is caught red-handed breaking into the offices of the powerful and vindictive faculty at the center of it all. Noah's world is soon turned upside-down when incriminating files are planted on his computer by the powerful faculty who now wish to silence him. Framed by his colleagues, the dean unwittingly accuses Noah of child exploitation, and the FBI is alerted. When the authorities storm his house, Noah, fearing dire consequences if sent to jail, makes a harrowing escape and kayaks down the Arkansas River to a secluded cabin owned by his former love, Amanda Strauss. After safely reaching the cabin, however, he soon encounters mysterious, sinister forces that seek to silence him for good, and he must run again. Noah's salvation lies in the protective embrace of the river as he flees by kayak - far downstream and back to Amanda, where he finds a renewed sense of purpose, and a rekindled love. With Amanda by his side, and with the aid of his trusted attorney and unexpected allies, he finally stands a chance of turning the tables on his foes. But with his cunning colleagues, and murderous forces plotting against him at every turn, it might not be enough. Racing against time, and with his reputation, career, and very life at stake, Noah must outwit his adversaries - and solve the mystery of his colleagues' wicked master plan - before it's too late.
