From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Inheritance Games series comes a thrilling mystery that plunges readers into a world of intense political machinations, deep-seated betrayals, and shocking, unpredictable twists. This captivating narrative is an absolute must-read for anyone who devoured the intricate plots of A Good Girl's Guide to Murder. The golden rule in Washington D.C. is simple: any problem, no matter how dire or scandalous, can be eradicated for the right price. When ordinary teenager Tess Kendrick is unexpectedly dispatched to live with her estranged older sister, Ivy, in the nation's capital, she is utterly oblivious to the clandestine world her sister inhabits. Ivy, it turns out, is the capital's legendary "fixer," a shadowy figure who possesses the unparalleled ability to make the most explosive scandals involving powerful politicians and influential figures vanish without a trace, often with just a phone call and a flick of her wrist. Tess had always believed she shared very little common ground with her sophisticated, enigmatic sister. Yet, upon her enrollment at the prestigious, highly exclusive Hardwicke School, a bastion for the children of D.C.'s elite, Tess soon finds herself inadvertently drawn into a similar, albeit high school-level, line of work. She quickly transforms into the de facto "fixer" for her privileged peers, discreetly resolving their myriad predicaments, from academic impropriety to social faux pas, keeping the secrets of the capital's next generation under wraps. However, this delicate balance of concealed truths cannot last indefinitely. As Tess and Ivy each navigate their precarious double lives, an ever-growing mountain of secrets threatens to topple their carefully constructed realities. The collision point arrives with devastating force when a deeply unsettling scandal originating within the hallowed halls of Hardwicke School tragically escalates, ultimately reaching the highest echelons of Capitol Hill. With the stakes escalating from mere reputation damage to potentially deadly consequences, Tess finds herself in a desperate race against time. She must meticulously unravel the tangled web of power and deceit to expose the true mastermind behind this dangerous game, all before she herself becomes the ultimate, fatal target. Readers eager for more will not want to miss the thrilling continuation of this story in the highly anticipated sequel, Lessons in Power! Please note, this compelling novel was previously published under the title The Fixer.
