Self-made CEO Safra Mayer is days away from taking her billion-dollar company public when one of her top executives, accuses her of sexual harassment.
The victim is a man. The predator is his female boss.
The timing is lethal.
The media trial has already begun.
Safra's reputation is being shredded in public, the IPO is collapsing in real time, and the board is preparing to move on without her.
Sterling Cross & Whitmore, Chicago's most powerful crisis-defense firm, is brought in to protect Safra and the company.
But Safra does not trust them.
She only trusts CAL JUSTICE.
The board hates Cal. The investors hate Cal.
Even the Judges.
Lawyers hate him too.
BUT they also fear him.
A former juvenile convict turned legal consultant, Cal lives in the space between law and leverage, victim and criminal, truth and survival. He cannot argue in court or file motions. He reads case files like crime scenes and finds the lie buried inside polished paperwork.
Everyone wants him gone.
But Safra wants him close.
Because Cal is the only person in the room who can protect her.
But the deeper Cal digs in the case, the uglier it becomes. The male exec is not just a simple accuser. The board is hiding something. And the firm hired to protect the company is already preparing Safra's sacrifice.
This is not just a simple sexual harassment case.
It is a corporate execution.
And whoever is running it has already decided that Cal and Safra are acceptable losses.
If you love John Grisham's courtroom tension, Scott Turow's moral complexity, and John Ellsworth's fast-moving legal drama, you will love Cal Justice.
