After a chance encounter with a wealthy bishop, Ward is offered a job as the bishop's secretary, which he accepts in hopes of advancing his writing career.As Ward becomes more involved in the bishop's life, he discovers that the man is not what he seems. The bishop is involved in a number of shady business deals and has a dark past that he is trying to keep hidden. Ward must navigate the treacherous waters of the bishop's world while also dealing with his own personal struggles.The Bishop's Gambit is a gripping tale of ambition, deception, and the cost of success.
