In this high-octane ride into the depths of high society, a TV news reporter prepares to make her mark in the cutthroat media scene―and unwittingly drags her own family’s secrets into the spotlight.

Sydney Price may have the means, but she has no intention of pulling her stepfamily’s powerful strings to fulfill her ambitions. Determined to make it as a reporter on her own merit, she refuses to take the seat waiting for her at New York’s Glenmont Media.

But even as she settles into her new job at a rival network, she can’t shake her legacy.

When a colleague dies, suddenly and suspiciously, Sydney follows her instinct to dig. But a massive storm is bearing down on Manhattan, and she’s on deck to cover it. Further complicating matters are her ex-boyfriend’s name―it keeps surfacing where it shouldn’t―and her family’s connection to incidents that threaten to unravel everything they’ve built.

As the conspiracy deepens and the newsroom closes in, Sydney finds herself up against the clock. Caught up in a web of lies and family secrets, she races to discover the truth…before she becomes the next victim.
