Step into a story where ambition meets identity, and success comes at a price no résumé can predict. Follow Damon Richardson—Ivy League–educated, confident, and certain he’s risen above race—as he enters a powerhouse advertising firm ready to soar on merit alone. There, his friendship with Josh Ford, whose journey began in the projects, offers grounding and hope. But when Damon lands a coveted assignment, the hidden structures of corporate America surface, forcing choices that blur integrity and ambition. Powerful, timely, and unflinchingly honest, this novel reveals how privilege—seen and unseen—shapes destinies in ways no one expects.
