Chicago, family is the most dangerous deal

Synopsis

“I didn’t marry into a family. I was absorbed into a contract.” When Emma Carter’s mother marries one of Chicago’s most powerful real estate moguls, Emma believes she’s finally entering a safe home. Instead, she becomes an unwanted clause—tolerated, mocked, and quietly prepared for removal. As her stepsister turns social media into a weapon and her stepfather plots inheritance like a business deal, Emma uncovers a chilling pattern: in the Wright family, blended children don’t last. With the help of a journalist and a brother who knows too much, Emma must decide—stay silent and survive, or burn the family down and reclaim her name.
