House Revenge

Description

Joe DeMarco is sent to Boston by his powerful congressional employer to resolve a seemingly simple real-estate dispute: an elderly woman refuses to leave the apartment building she calls home, standing in the way of a developer’s ambitious plans. What begins as an effort to negotiate a buyout becomes more personal when the developer challenges the congressman’s authority—and more dangerous as DeMarco uncovers the forces behind the project. Set against a world of political influence, corporate ambition, and vulnerable communities, this tense mystery explores how far powerful people will go to get what they want.
