Malory Flemmings, a talented 32-year-old CPA, lands a prestigious job at Ironsmith Investing Enterprises, a powerful Los Angeles investment firm. The company appears glamorous and generous—offering luxury perks, networking incentives, and an elite lifestyle. But beneath the polished surface, something is deeply wrong.
Shortly after starting her new role, Malory discovers discrepancies in the personal expense account of the company’s CEO, Rex Ironsmith. When she prints documentation of what appears to be fraud or embezzlement, the digital records mysteriously change. The inconsistencies are “corrected,” and it becomes clear that someone inside the company is monitoring her movements and attempting to erase evidence.
At the same time, the firm’s former accountant, Bob Evans—the man Malory replaced—has vanished after a business trip to Catalina Island. Soon, a mutilated body washes ashore, and detectives begin investigating whether it may be Evans. Suspicion grows around the firm’s leadership.
