Story
The story
A wife is barely three weeks postpartum when her husband, Kyle, collapses at his desk, worked to death by eighty-hour weeks just as he is promoted to regional managing director. With her newborn son Noah strapped to her chest, she wins a four-hundred-thousand-dollar wrongful-death settlement from the firm after four hostile mediation sessions. Yet the money never reaches her account.
The company has wired the full payout to Kyle's parents as next of kin. At the family farmhouse, her father-in-law Kenneth thrusts a crumpled handwritten note at her, claiming Kyle borrowed two hundred thousand dollars for their house, and her mother-in-law Marian sneers that a dead man cannot prove paternity, calling Noah a stranger's bastard. The Rowlands disown her and her son, and neighbors side against her.
Sophie knows the note is forged and that Kyle never borrowed a cent, only sent his parents far more than his tuition ever cost. Cast off the property with her crying baby, she vows they will live to regret this day.
Opening excerpt
I was barely three weeks postpartum. With an infant strapped to my chest and an employment lawyer at my side, I staked out the firm’s downtown office tower for three grueling days. Four hostile mediation sessions later, the executive board broke under the threat of a wrongful-death suit, reluctantly agreeing to a four-hundred-thousand-dollar settlement.
Yet when the funds were released, my bank account remained desolate.
These are the opening lines of chapter 1. Keep reading →
