In Chicago, wealth rises in glass towers. But some buildings are built on bodies.
Camille Price knows real estate. As a senior acquisitions executive at Meridian Crown Properties, she understands how land becomes luxury, how neighborhoods become investment opportunities, and how powerful people hide ugly truths behind polished language and beautiful views.
But when Meridian Crown's CFO, Victor Haines, is found dead inside the company's elite downtown headquarters during a brutal winter storm, Camille realizes this murder is not just about one man. It is about a corporation full of secrets, a room full of suspects, and a past death that was never truly buried.
Five years earlier, financial analyst Evelyn Brooks died after uncovering dangerous problems inside one of Meridian Crown's most celebrated developments. Her death was ruled a suicide, but Camille never believed the official story. Now, with Victor dead and old evidence resurfacing, Camille begins to see the connection between two deaths, unethical deals, unsafe buildings, missing money, secret affairs, gambling debts, and executives willing to protect their luxury lives at any cost.
Trapped together as police investigate, Meridian Crown's most powerful players are forced to face the truth they tried to hide. The CEO with a crumbling empire. The lawyer who knows too much. The risk officer with a dangerous habit. The public face of community development with a private affair. The investor relations star funding a glamorous double life. And the young analyst who may have found the file that could bring them all down.
Set against the icy elegance of Chicago's skyline, private clubs, luxury condos, sports suites, riverfront restaurants, and politically connected real estate circles, Dead Equity is a sharp financial murder mystery about greed, ambition, corruption, and the high cost of silence.
Because in a city where everyone wants the view from the top, some people will kill to keep the foundation from cracking.
