FYI: An Unintended Consequence Kindle Edition
Fake news terrorizes Taryn Cooper Walsh, managing partner of 4G Investments. Mysterious mailings contain increasingly vicious lies suggesting that Taryn is running an unethical firm...a firm she founded with three women she has known since grade school, and a silent partner.
Supported by her husband, Taryn searches for the source of these lies before they destroy her reputation along with the trust of investors in her firm.
As the news clips continue to arrive Taryn becomes ill, blaming it on her increasing anxiety and inability to find any clue to the person behind the attacks.
Who would want to destroy Taryn, 4G Investments and its partners? Is it a disgruntled investor? An unethical associate? A competitor in the highly charged hedge fund world?
This is a tale of a seemingly innocent incident fueling one person's plot for revenge.
Can you work out what's behind it?

This would be an interesting read for anyone who's mesmerized by human nature. 5 stars for a satisfactory read and ending!
According to her biography, Gitt’s own real life corporate career provides realistic touches only an insider can know, and her descriptions are as rich as the powerful players in her novel.
As I read the latest novel by Patricia E. Gitt, I couldn’t help thinking about what I would do if I were faced with the dilemma that Taryn Cooper Walsh and her three co-founders of 4G Investments face when a series of shocking salacious letters sent to Taryn threatens the success of their hedge fund. About to restructure their business into a Venture Capital firm, the women are blindsided by the thought of possibly losing everything they’ve worked so hard for.
Seemingly coming from nowhere, this new threat leaves them wondering who and why anyone would try to destroy what they had built up through the years starting from the age of eight years old, and earning extra money from the 4 Girls Baby Sitting Service. The $1200 they earned back then grew into a source of pride and financial success for all of them. So who would want to hurt them now? Was it Taryn’s husband, Jesse’s ex-wife, who still wants to be part of his life? Could it be their lawyer’s gay lover? Or could it be someone from their past who is looking for vengeance for an old unremembered injury?
Searching for the culprit, Taryn works her way into the solution that paves the way to keep the business on track while mending fences she didn’t know she had damaged. I found “FYI - An Unexpected Consequence” a very engrossing tale that leaves one wondering about the many twists and turns we take that can make or break our lives. Ms. Gitt is to be commended for creating a suspenseful story that leaves you holding your breath till the very end.
