In this gripping mystery novel, the lives of an African-American couple, Lemaster and Julia Carlyle, are turned upside down when they stumble upon the body of a murdered man, who happens to be an old friend from their past. Set against the backdrop of an elite New England university, the story delves into themes of race, power, and privilege, as Julia, a university dean, is drawn into a web of secrets and lies that threaten to unravel her family's carefully constructed world. As she navigates the complex social dynamics and hidden agendas of the academic elite, Julia must confront her own past and the moral dilemmas that come with it.
