Present & Past Imperfect is the first book in a series of seven novels entitled Shattered Covenants which narrates the formation, rise, decline and fall of McKenzie Barber, a global management consulting firm. Present & Past Imperfect takes place during a single week in November 1987 with flashbacks to the founding and organizational evolution of McKenzie Barber. The reader meets John McKenzie, the founding father of the discipline of management consulting and tracks the ascendancy of Ernie Grey as John McKenzie's successor to the November 1987 reality of a faltering enterprise under the leadership in the post-Ernie Grey era.
