In the heat-choked elegance of Savannah, the Beaumont name is worth billions. But the truth about how they kept it is buried in the mud.
Hal Beaumont was never meant to be the king of Beaumont Holdings. He was the artist, the exile, the observer. But when his father dies in a suspicious accident and his uncle Clay immediately seizes the company-and marries Hal's mother-the exile returns home.
Hal isn't interested in the boardroom. He is interested in the surveillance footage that vanished the night his father died.
He has seen the murder. Now, he's going to direct the revenge.
Dismissed as grief-stricken and unstable, Hal retreats into the shadows of his family's estate. While his uncle orchestrates a $720 million sale of the family legacy, Hal orchestrates a different kind of takeover. Armed with a camera, a hacked security system, and a dangerous obsession, he begins to document the rot at the heart of the city's elite.
But in a world of old money and new surveillance, the line between justice and madness blurs. As Hal drags the family's darkest secrets into the light-using a black-tie gala as his premiere-he risks destroying the only innocent person left: the woman he once loved, now a pawn in a deadly corporate game.
Hamlet meets Succession in this atmospheric Southern Gothic thriller.
A Silvered Shroud is a story of ghosts in the machine, the violence of memory, and the price of exposing the truth in a city built on silence.
