Greta Vinet Seville, E-Discovery Counsel at Coarse & Cotton, finds herself fleeing her firm after taking crucial data to investigate a deep-rooted corruption. She assembles a diverse team of friends and experts to sift through the evidence, including a brilliant litigation tech specialist, a possibly psychopathic summer associate, an investigative reporter, an art restorer, her philosophy professor brother, and her love interest, a compliance attorney. The narrative intertwines romance, action, and technology law, while also delving into Greta's personal history with a renegade aunt who has fought her own battles for decades. They establish a makeshift war room in a historic Salem home, leading them into thrilling chases around Boston and a major hospital at the heart of the corruption. As the stakes rise, they face dangerous adversaries willing to kill to protect their secrets. This investigation is unlike any Greta has undertaken, filled with suspense and twists that culminate in a shocking revelation. A surrealist thriller for fans of early John Grisham, it features an all-female cast and a gripping conclusion that will leave readers stunned.
