EDGAR AWARD NOMINEE ? A WASHINGTON POST AND CRIMEREADS BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR

DON'T CALL ME A FIXER. THIS ISN'T HBO.

As the unofficial "problem solver" for Silicon Valley's most ruthless venture capitalist, Mackenzie Clyde's an expert at wrangling tech bros and their multimillions -- even as her own shot at a windfall remains just out of reach.

But now she's playing for higher stakes. Because the lightning-rod CEO of tech's hottest startup has just been murdered, leaving behind billions in "dead money" frozen in his will -- and Mackenzie's boss is the company's chief investor.

With a fortune on the line and the official investigation going nowhere, it's up to Mackenzie to step in and resolve things, fast.

Mackenzie's a lawyer, not a detective. Cracking this fiendishly clever killing, with its list of suspects that reads like a who's-who of Valley power players, should be way out of her league.

Except Mackenzie's used to being underestimated. In fact, she's counting on it.

"Terrific... filled with jaw-dropping twists and turns... an unpredictable nesting-box of surprises." -- The New York Times Book Review
