Madison Adler had it all — wealth, power, legacy — until her husband died and took the truth with him.
Now a widow in Manhattan, Madison fights to keep control of Adler Technologies, the empire she helped build. But there's a new player in town: Angelica Monroe — stunning, ruthless, and newly appointed Chair of the Board. She’s after the company. She’s after the legacy. She’s after Madison.
When a mysterious business card with a strange emblem leads Madison down a rabbit hole of shadowy rituals and twisted games, she discovers a secret world beneath the surface — a society that strips away every illusion of control. In the depths of this underground club, obedience is currency. Chastity is power. And pain? Pain is purpose.
And maybe, just maybe, her husband had something to do with it.
