COUNTERPUNCH – Maryl Morgan Marks: Book 1. This is the first book in the Maryl Morgan Marks series about a strong career woman in a man's world, navigating the world of betrayal and narcissism in the high tech arena in the 1980s. Maryl Morgan Marks jumps into the gritty pounding city of Philadelphia after a chance meeting leads her to a booming high-tech startup job far from her sleepy Seattle suburb. There she is shocked into the reality of power, greed, and start-up speed in the high-stakes world of the 1980s. Grappling with an inherited friend group, dubious business ethics, and the new definition of corporate success, her journey is a tug-of-war between her higher self and wanting retribution for the misogyny and narcissism engulfing her. In a world where power is the ultimate currency, can Maryl's inner strength withstand the allure of vengeance? And in the end, are justice and revenge so different?Retired from the 'gray suit in a gray box' world where she lived her stories, Taylor is a full-time author of Women's Fiction books. Drawing from a rich life of personal and professional adventures, her goal is to give strong (or soon-to-be strong) women a bit of escape from their own lives for a minute and offer a kindred spirit in this rat race of relationships with, and working for, well—humans. Women from their twenties to late eighties will smile and nod through Maryl Morgan Marks' setbacks and triumphs as she works her way into and out of personal and business situations we've all faced.
