The company that Ellice works at is toxic and full of microaggressions and I loved the way that the author laid everything out. The book does a great job of highlighting social and workplace issues, especially with regards to race and gender. Will Ellice survive to the end or will she end up like her boss? There are so many dubious characters and I was suspicious of everyone. The suspense drove me crazy, wanting to know who was a good guy and who was a bad guy. I was definitely entertained and kept turning the pages, wanting to find out what happens. This is a fast-paced and suspenseful legal thriller. Then she finds out that those secrets she is so desperate to keep? Someone else knows them and they’ll stop at nothing to keep Ellice from exposing what is going on at the company. There are shady deals going on and protestors out front and Ellice wonders what the real reason she, the company’s lone Black attorney, was promoted. But when she is asked to replace her boss, she learns that things are not so up and up at the company. Ellice has too many secrets to be involved in a police investigation. When Ellice Littlejohn, a corporate attorney in Atlanta, arrived for a morning meeting with her boss and instead found him dead in his office, she turned around and left his body for someone else to find.
