And it isn't looking good for Taylor.

Taylor has a new challenge with someone looking into his business, and this time it's a feisty reporter from a Cryptid-Inquirer magazine. Will she upset the balance between Marino and McFadden?

Taylor works to keep his business functioning, his employees safe, and wondering if he is going to be able to launder a few million in cash with a reporter sniffing around.

      Taylor McFadden is willing to go against any monster thrown at him. But something Niki threw at him has got him off his game. Niki must build a consultant team to figure out if she has a problem with another company. But, will Dr. Salinger Jacobs of Heavy Metal take her call? Does she have the clout to get him to believe her if he picks up the phone? There is a hot-potato new hire at McFadden's Mechs, and no one wants to 'fess up to Niki. Not the new-hire, not Taylor, and certainly not the computer-hacker cousin who was guilty of it in the first place. Will Vickie overcome her cousin's focus and help the company out in the process of helping herself change jobs? For Taylor McFadden, life is full of dangerous complications. The rest of his problems have to do with alien monsters wanting to eat him.
