    About this ebook

    On the eve of a major speech on “Morality in Banking”, a wealthy banker finds himself suddenly facing accusations of rape.
    With his reputation in tatters, he learns the hard way how easily a woman can bring any man, no matter how rich or powerful down.
    Hiring a shrewd lawyer to defend him, he faces the long arm of the law, with ruthless tabloid reporters in pursuit.
