Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Kyle McAvoy is one of the greatest legal students of his generation. He has a brilliant mind and a glittering future ahead of him.

But he has a secret from the past that threatens to destroy his entire livelihood.

When this secret catches up with him in the form of a compromising video, Kyle is left with an impossible choice.

He can take a job in New York at the largest law firm in the world and share the sordid secrets of its biggest trial to date.

Or his past will be exposed to the masses.

It's a deadly game of blackmail. And someone is making him play.

The story was novel and clever

The plot was unusual and it was developed in an interesting manner but I would have preferred better closure at the end

Dissapointing

The story is good enough while it lasts but I felt that the ending was only half of the tale. Not enough goes on to make this a classic, I certainly couldn't see this making hollywood. It's well written with good dialogue but I felt let down with the ending
