Some fathers protect their daughters. Mine taught me to fear the dark.
 

Everything is as it should be for Nina Kasai: thriving career, devoted husband, and a future as bright as the Boston skyline. Her hard work has finally paid off, landing the cover of a prestigious business magazine.

But her celebration is cut short when her estranged father, charismatic businessman and philanthropist Phillip Copeland, steps out of the shadows with a demand that threatens to shatter everything she’s built. Phillip has launched a bid for Governor, and he isn’t just asking for Nina’s public support, he’s threatening to expose the past she’s fought to keep buried.

As the pressure mounts, Nina is pulled into a dangerous game of blackmail, betrayal, and public scandal. To survive, she must make an unthinkable choice: protect the life she’s built or go to war with the man who taught her how to lie.

When the shocking truth about Phillip’s crimes finally comes to light, Nina finds herself at the center of a high-profile trial where the stakes couldn’t be higher. Will the world see her as a courageous whistleblower—or as a cunning manipulator determined to destroy an innocent man?
