The Promotion Wasn't Mine
"The most effective fraud is one the victim helps execute."
Jocelyn Brooks sacrificed everything for her career at Millbrook Wynne. When she receives a highly coveted promotion to Senior Vice President of Client Strategy at the New York headquarters, she eagerly uproots her life in Denver. Supported by her attentive, loving husband, Paul, Jocelyn moves across the country ready to claim the corner office she has spent twelve years earning.
But on her first morning in Manhattan, the glass doors of her new life slam shut. Human Resources has no record of her promotion. Worse, a woman with her exact name is already sitting at her desk, drinking from a personalized mug.
Initially dismissed as a bizarre corporate glitch, the truth Jocelyn uncovers is far more sinister. Her professional identity hasn't just been stolen; it has been meticulously dismantled over eleven months. As she digs into her suddenly compromised employee records, she realizes the architect of her destruction isn't a ruthless corporate rival-it's the man who packed her bags, cooked her dinners, and held her hand.
Paul hasn't just moved her across the country out of love. He has extracted her to protect a $2.3 million vendor fraud scheme she was on the verge of discovering.
Trapped in an expensive apartment her husband chose, in a city she doesn't know, Jocelyn must navigate a terrifying reality where the person she sleeps next to is managing her like a liability. To survive, she must build a trap of her own, using the very corporate systems meant to erase her.
