He offered her the rules. She rewrote the game.
Lily Martinez takes a live-in nursing job at the Hartwell estate-a house of locked doors, mirrored halls, and cameras that never blink. The patient, Eleanor Hartwell, is eighty-two, lucid, and far too interested in human behavior. Each "caregiver" believes they're the only one. Each is being watched.
But the inheritance test isn't about loyalty or service-it's about power. And when desire collides with deceit, Lily learns the game was never about who deserves to win, but who dares to walk away.
As eliminations begin and alliances blur into obsession, the house becomes a stage for every secret people hide for money, survival, and love.
When the final contract lands on the table, Lily faces one truth: the price of wealth isn't fortune. It's yourself.
Perfect for readers of The Housemaid, Haunting Adeline, and Fourth Wing-this dark psychological thriller blends seduction, control, and the fine line between love and leverage.
