Brooklyn, New York - 2019. When billionaire power figure Geoffrey Epstenson is imprisoned in Manhattan's most notorious federal facility, many believe his downfall is complete. But even behind bars, Epstenson holds powerful connections-political leaders, media giants, royalty, and elite Masonic circles-and he is determined to use them all for one purpose: revenge. Assigned to defend him is Clare Starley, a talented young attorney from the prestigious Brooklyn Legal Services. As she becomes entangled in Epstenson's complex world, she discovers just how far influence and manipulation can reach. What she does not expect is the dangerous attraction that forms between them, pulling her into a web of loyalty, ambition, and secrets. Outside the prison walls, betrayal brews. Epstenson's own son, Geoffrey Jr., conspires with a corrupt officer to have him eliminated. But their plan is complicated when the officer, Josephine Mitchell, unexpectedly falls for the prisoner and joins him in plotting a staged suicide to secure his escape. The story takes another turn when Cary Talesse, a Washington Post journalist and outspoken critic of the Me Too movement, becomes involved. His connection to Clare and his fascination with Epstenson's case ignite a series of events that challenge the boundaries of truth, justice, and public perception. Blending elements of political thriller, crime fiction, and contemporary drama, this novel offers a bold critique of power structures and the manipulation of modern social movements. Suspenseful and provocative, it explores how influence can be weaponized and how personal and political motives collide in a high-stakes struggle for control.
