When PI Diana Hunter accepts a case from corporate titan, Maude McCollvoy, she thinks she is just checking up on Maude's rebellious and crusading son. Instead Diana finds evidence of mortgage fraud that leads her from the homeless on dark streets of Los Angeles to the corporate towers of the super rich. In need of allies, Diana accepts an ad hoc partnership with hansom Nelson Langly who comes with the approval of Diana's mentor, Sam Dehany. Diana and Nelson peal away the layers of the case, exposing an international conspiracy involving secret foreign investment, hidden money, hidden profits, and tax fraud. However the problem is, the legal case they build will never see the inside of a court room. The cabal they have uncovered is run by those of such power and influence that they are immune to civil and criminal justice. Diana and Nelson learn that in the rarefied world of the super rich things are not done by law, but by Corporatocracy Rules. How can you bring justice to the Corporatocracy when they control the system? With both justice and their own lives on the line, Diana and Nelson abandon legal procedures and resort to desperate measures for extracting justice.
