Michael Foster has always seen pathways others can't. After failing the bar exam three times and facing crushing student debt, this Columbia Law graduate can't land a job despite his exceptional mind. When a chance encounter introduces him to the lucrative world of "creative legal consulting," Michael finds himself on a slippery slope, using his remarkable talents to help criminal enterprises navigate regulatory loopholes.
As his wealth and influence grow, so does the attention from law enforcement-particularly from prosecutor Diana Chen, the woman he loves. Caught between ambition and conscience, Michael builds an empire of legal shadows while maintaining a relationship with the very person sworn to bring operations like his to justice.
When a federal investigation threatens everything he's built, Michael must orchestrate his most brilliant legal maneuver yet. But will he choose destruction, surrender, or find a third path that only his unique mind can envision?
The Shell Game is a gripping legal thriller exploring the thin line between ambition and corruption, talent and temptation, and whether redemption is possible for those who have fallen too far.
