She Took My Desk. Northstar Office Lies, #2

"A company can replace you in an afternoon. The trick is making sure you don't notice until the nameplate is already changed."Valerie Stone is a successful Communications Director at a prestigious Manhattan consulting firm. She thrives on efficiency, routine, and the belief that her hard work will soon be rewarded with a promotion to Senior Vice President. But her carefully constructed professional life begins to fracture the morning she arrives to find a new coordinator, Kira Ames, sitting in her chair, wearing her signature navy blazer, and seamlessly taking over her largest accounts.
When Valerie investigates this sudden "department restructuring, " she uncovers a chilling paper trail. Her trusted boss, the COO, has been secretly using her digital login and personal PIN to fire women of color using discriminatory evaluations-framing Valerie for the devastating terminations. Even worse, he has planted a hidden microphone inside her blazer, recording her every word to edit into a fake confession.
But Kira is not just a replacement. She is the sister of one of the fired women, working undercover under a false name to expose the company's corrupt machinery. To survive the trap closing around her, Valerie must do the unthinkable. The woman who unwittingly signed the termination papers must team up with the sister of the woman she destroyed. Together, they must dismantle the system from the inside before it entirely replaces and destroys them both.
