She spent years hunting a ghost. She never expected the ghost to start hunting her back.
Eva Quinn is a forensic accountant with nothing left to lose. Her father-a brilliant, honest man-was destroyed by a fraud he didn't commit, framed by a monster who stole everything. Now Eva lives for one thing: dismantling Jake LaBorde's empire from the inside, one shell company at a time.
When a mysterious job offer lands her inside Letlow Tower, Eva sees her chance. Samuel Letlow, the cold, controlled heir to a corporate dynasty, needs someone to find the rot in his company. What he doesn't know is that Eva has already mapped every hidden account, every laundered dollar, every lie. She's not here to help him. She's here to use him.
But Samuel is not what she expected. Beneath the tailored suits and the ruthless boardroom demeanor is a man haunted by his own ghosts-a man who sees through her defenses with unsettling ease. As their investigation deepens, so does the dangerous intimacy between them. Every late night, every shared secret, every accidental touch threatens to shatter the walls Eva built to protect herself.
Then the first threat arrives. A break-in. Destroyed evidence. A message written in shredded paper: We know what you're doing.
Now Eva faces an impossible choice: expose LaBorde and burn Samuel's family legacy to ash, or protect the man she was never supposed to care for. But LaBorde has been playing this game for decades. And he's already three moves ahead.
THE LABORDE EFFECT is a gripping financial thriller about obsession, betrayal, and the fine line between justice and revenge. For fans of corporate espionage and white collar crime, this is a story of a woman who built herself from rubble-and the man who saw her anyway.
Help Eva follow the numbers and see where they lead.Also from
