Vivie Warren is a fiercely intelligent young woman determined to build a life on her own terms—one that includes whisky, detective novels, and a flourishing legal career. But when her long-absent mother, Mrs. Warren, re-enters her life, Vivie is forced to confront a truth she’s never been told: the wealth that funded her future was earned through a profession society refuses to name. What follows is a bold interrogation of independence, morality, and what women must do to survive in a man’s world.
