Story
The story
A rich young man invites a woman he met online to dinner, hoping to trap her. Encouraged by his flattery, she orders a feast fit for ten—king crab, lobster, French caviar—while a hidden camera streams her every move to a jeering audience. He tells her that if she cannot finish it all, she pays the ninety-five-thousand-dollar bill.
But the woman does not panic. She calmly eats every last bite, leaving not a single grain of rice, and the livestream's mockery turns to disbelief. As the watchers struggle to explain her, a friend of the man, Simon Hayes, approaches their table and orders coffee, his scent catching her attention.
She is no ordinary target, and the hunters may have chosen the wrong prey.
Opening excerpt
A rich kid offered to buy me dinner.
Led on by his sly encouragement, I ordered a feast of biblical proportions for a table of ten: king crab, massive lobsters, the finest French caviar—the works.
It wasn’t until he flashed a malicious grin that the trap was sprung.
