‘A slow-burn tale of connivance and deceit with a knockout ending’ OBSERVER

Money talks. But what if it lies? An ambitious young Black woman, plotting her way into the world of the one percent. An old white billionaire, facing his own extinction.

He’s attracted to her intelligence, her refusal to be deferential, maybe also her Blackness. She’s drawn to his power and money – and his apparent willingness to share both with her. But how far is each prepared to go to get what they think they deserve?
