Overview

"Garrett Darcy faces the daunting task of succeeding his father Alastair Darcy, a pillar of the community, who has succumbed to a stroke and remains sedated in bed. Garrett's first order of business- ensure a revealing biography about Alastair written by his assistant turned writer Elsa Cummings never sees the light of day. However, this task won't be easily accomplished as Elsa's book has attracted the likes of lewd book published Bentley, Garrett's rival book publisher. As Garrett aims to acquire the book rights so he can bury the revealing material he becomes immersed in the mysterious society the book claims Alastair participates in. Garrett's quest for the truth draws him further into the rabbit hole of the secret society which soon becomes an obsession. Garrett's newfound obsession quickly becomes jeopardizing when people familiar with Elsa's work begin mysteriously dying. This leads to Garrett becoming a suspect in these mysterious murders and must gain access to this secret society to clear his name. However, his pursuits will only expose his idolized father, Alastair, and show Garrett that Alastair's philanthropic life was nothing but a facade." -- Abstract
