Heart of Bone Guy Lane

Rebecca is a personal assistant to billionaire poison-merchant, Gilly Clay, and she's trapped in a ruinous employment contract. Her life flashes past, through a mane of ginger hair and stress. Rebecca keeps her sanity through a secret love affair with psychologist and author, Tom Snowdon. Snowdon's new book - Sustainability and the Superclass - gets inside the heads of the powerful men who run the world so badly. One day, Gilly Clay adopts an 8-year-old boy, Monty, and grooms him as the heir to both the business empire and his defective moral compass. Seeing this, all of Rebecca's certainties slip away and she's faced with a stark choice. Will she keep silent and watch the boy get corrupted, or risk everything by speaking out?
