The Manipulators — Dale Soderberg

Dearborn University, a small liberal arts school in Central New York, is shaken to the core by a sequence of events involving two professors and a student who is the daughter of the ruthless Don of the Mafia's Villario Family. Dr. Ellen Shaw and Angie Villario are both drawn to Expatriate expert, Gary Conway, in a battle only one can win. Meanwhile, Conway is caught up in a web of intrigue initiated by Luca Villario and exacerbated by the FBI. Pressured from every side, Conway loses complete control of his life when a horrendous episode on campus causes everyone to make unanticipated and life-changing decisions which lead to an astonishing conclusion on Spain's lovely Costa Blanca.
