Story

The story

Holden has spent three years playing the doting, unambitious husband—cooking, cleaning, and taking a quiet desk job while his wife Vivian, a literature professor, climbs toward the elite. What she does not know is that his mediocrity is a cover for a deep-cover investigation into a massive organized crime ring.

While sorting laundry, Holden finds a matte-black card for a gentlemen's concierge service. The QR code opens a catalogue of men with price tags, and Vivian's spending has already reached six figures. He photographs it and sends it to Marcus, his partner, who reveals the address belongs to The Box, a place they have tried to crack for months. Vivian comes home reeking of gin and another man's musk, sneers at his small world, and takes his money for her networking dinner.

Tonight, the target is mobile. Holden tells Marcus tonight is the night, and Marcus warns him to watch his six.

Opening excerpt

I supported it. I championed it. I was the doting husband, right until today, when I found the card tucked into the pocket of her silk blouse while sorting the laundry.

It was heavy stock, matte black. On the back, in elegant cursive: “The Gentleman’s Selection. Unbox your fantasy. Your exclusive concierge: Jax.”

I scanned the QR code with my phone. It didn't take me to a reading list. It launched a digital catalogue of men—oiled abs, chiseled jaws, eyes promising trouble. Every single one came with a price tag.
