Whisper Network by Chandler Baker

 Things are going to change at the law offices where the women have worked for years.  The CEO has died and a new one will be chosen.  When it appears that the frontrunner is Ames, a man who has a reputation for sexual harassment in the firm, some of the women lawyers decide enough is enough.

The women are all elite lawyers but quite different.  There's Sloan who is a driven women determined to make her way up the ladder and who had an affair with Ames years ago.  Grace is a new mom with a baby at home and struggling to keep up.  Ardie is a bit older and is recently divorced, realizing that she is now the sole support for her new household of her son and herself.  Katherine is a new hire, and seems to be Ames' new target.

The women decide to file a sexual harassment lawsuit against the company for providing an unsafe working environment and against Ames in particular for his acts over the years.  The company is determined to fight back.  When Ames goes over the railing on the rooftop of the firm to his death, lines are quickly drawn.  Was it suicide?  Was Ames pushed to his death?

Chandler Baker is an attorney herself and has written this novel from her own experiences and from stories other professional women have told her.  Sexual harassment in the workplace is still a very real experience and not every women has the legal knowledge and expertise these women did to deal with a job threatening experience.  I listened to this novel and the narrator was great and sounded like a sharp, professional woman would sound.  This book is recommended for both mystery and women's fiction readers.
