But when he is forced to write a profile about a company executive named Andrea Drashkov, who is facing financial and personal ruin, accused of making millions off false stock earnings, Webster finds himself being dragged into a dangerous chess game played by the most powerful minds in the country who are using Drashkov for their own personal gain. As Webster digs deeper into Drashkov’s life, he finds shocking evidence she might actually be innocent. This knowledge not only drives Webster to fall back into his old destructive habits but also threatens his life. As Drashkov’s trial comes to a close, Webster must race to untangle this large conspiracy and convince the court judge to set Drashkov free.
