About the Book

The prize three company climbers sought to steal, was their boss' multi-million-dollar salary, his job . . . and his life. One of the climbers, unknown to the others, launched a hit man, through a code word, "setigera."

Would the climbers win?


About the Author

George D. Robey retired as managing editor of Ohio's largest farm magazine, the Buckeye Farm News. In his assignment for the Ohio Farm Bureau Federation, he also was on the four-man finance team that arranged funds for the world's largest dry milling ethanol plant. Earlier, for the Ohio Rural Electric Cooperatives, he helped management build the first base-loaded electric power generating stations in the world's first-time partnership of cooperatives and investor-owned electric companies (the American Electric Power Company).

This book is drawn from personal experiences in which George D. Robey worked with several chief executive officers. He witnessed some of the events in The Climbers in one form or another. The book is neither a biography nor an autobiography. Certain violent acts by an assassin relate to a real serial killer in Ohio, now in jail after shooting several solitary hunters and fishermen in Eastern Ohio.

In 1966, Robey co-authored a book, Complete Guide to Fishing Across North America, by Joe Brooks (Harper and Row, Library of Congress Catalog Number 66-10660). He's an active-retired member of the Outdoor Writers Association of America and the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association.
