"A scintillating take on marital and workplace dramas with compelling characters and devilish surprises...Goldstein's precise, elegant prose cleverly takes its time revealing his characters' secret desires, building suspense for fun to come...when readers are alone with each character's thoughts, the author serves up something delicious." -Kirkus Reviews How well do you really know the people you encounter every day? Craig Schumacher is not your typical executive. With a gentle spirit and a morning ritual that includes serene meditation alongside his cherished rabbit, Golda, Craig values connection over competition. Yet, beneath his calm, polished exterior lies a secret he's worked hard to keep hidden-one that could change everything. Enter Byron Dorn-Craig's employee and chaos incarnate. Crude, impulsive, and driven by envy, Byron is elated when he and his wife stumble upon information that he believes could unravel Craig's life. But when Byron ropes another couple into his schemes, things become a lot more complicated. Because Craig isn't the only one with a secret. And as the stakes rise, everyone will have to decide what they're willing to sacrifice to get what they want-and when they're willing to walk away. Set against the dynamic backdrop of San Francisco, this gripping psychological novel weaves a complex tapestry of deception, envy, desire, politics, and power.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
