(In late 2004, an inspector in the aeronautical industry made a life-changing decision to inform his employer about defective fuel line brackets being shipped for installation on commercial jets. As he left his superior's office, he was grabbed from behind, punched in the head, and forced to the floor where he was beaten by three men. When he awoke, a police officer stood over him and the inspector was soon cited for an altercation he never initiated.

Paul Grauber provides an insider's glimpse into the aeronautical industry, where the need to supply more airplanes or parts for already manufactured airplanes has forced the kind of changes that could eventually have a devastating effect on the industry. Grauber discloses how his decision to blow the whistle on his employer led to a chain of horrific events including being shunned by the company's union, receiving a termination letter in the mail, coping with continuing medical conditions, and battling with the subsequent unemployment and legal issues.

At What Cost? is the inspirational story of one man who decided not to trade in his values and integrity for the security of a paycheck, but instead, chose to stand up for the truth.
