Fantasy and reality clash in a twisted novel of psychological suspense, where a shared moment of female outrage changes one woman's career overnight-and her life forever.

Beatrice "Bea" Ku is sure this is it. The moment she finally receives her hard-earned promotion at the Seattle law firm where the young Filipina American attorney has toiled for five years. She can't wait to tell her parents-and Allegra, her annoyingly perfect childhood friend. So when her boss betrays her, again, promoting a male colleague instead, she's so angry she could kill.

Bea tries to suppress that anger, just like her anxiety. But she's branded "too emotional," dredging up old memories from high school and her unhealthy coping mechanisms. Allegra and her husband, Caleb, Bea's former crush, were largely responsible for getting Bea hooked. And her family and friends paid dearly.

Tired of all the gaslighting and toxic masculinity, and emboldened by liquid courage, Bea vows to change things. When a kindred spirit suggests a murder pact, she jokingly agrees. But nobody's laughing when their deal turns out to be all too real...
