Sloane works at Truviv Inc alongside Ardie, Grace, and Rosalita. When the CEO dies suddenly, their boss Ames stands ready to take control of the entire company. For years, whispers have followed Ames about his treatment of women. The corporate hierarchy has buried these complaints and silenced victims. But when Ames makes another inappropriate move on a female colleague, the four women refuse to stay quiet this time. Their decision to fight back triggers a corporate earthquake. Secrets surface. Lies crumble. Some people will not survive what comes next. The women warned everyone from the beginning that listening might have prevented the catastrophe. Now their lives as mothers, wives, friends, and coworkers will never be the same. Their stand against workplace harassment becomes a battle that reshapes everything they thought they knew about power, loyalty, and survival in corporate America.
