Journey to the Abyss: A story of success and loss

By Robert Knauer

Journey to the Abyss is fictional autobiography of a young Atlanta couple, a picture of the American success story and a great family, that ends up losing it all due to the greed of the wife and her contempt for her loving husband Robby. The wife, Tracy, develops a plan to steal his firm by telling him if she has 51 percent control as a small business she can be awarded directional one way federal contracts with little or no competition required. Foolishly that is when trouble begins. Her greed takes over, as her need to have sex with multiple men until she is confronted by one particular man of a firm known as Trans Global Inc., which makes her believe he truly loves her and can sexually satisfy her more than her husband ever could. TGI ends up stealing her firm (her husband's firm) and using it for nefarious purposes. The story does not have a happy ending, but there is a real life lesson built into the book for everyone involved in government contracts. Topics covered include: Fraud, the False Claims Act, cheating the government, cheating on a spouse and how doing bad will come back to haunt you.
