Alan Boltby is a highly successful Toronto corporate lawyer--and a twenty-four-seven workaholic. He remembers his father exhorting him to become all the man he can be. So he reconnects with his estranged older brother, James, co-founder of a Manhattan hedge fund. And he cajoles his former lover, now general counsel at James's company, into dinner.
James surprises Alan, asking for help at the hedge fund. Alan is shocked to find insider trading allegations and two unexplained deaths, and turns investigator. But when the brothers take refuge at Crook's Hill Farm, their boyhood home, a horrific, long-buried family crime resurfaces. For ten days, Alan fights between protecting James and standing up for what's right--while saving himself from the family crime's noose.
