इस ई-बुक के बारे में जानकारी

An "engaging and suspenseful" novel of a first-generation Chinese American having second thoughts about her elite Manhattan law firm ( The Wall Street Journal).
Ingrid Yung's life is full of firsts. A first-generation Chinese American, the first lawyer in her family, she's about to collect the holy grail of firsts and become the first minority woman to make partner at the venerable old Wall Street law firm Parsons Valentine & Hunt.
Ingrid has perfected the art of "passing" and seamlessly blends into the old-boy corporate culture. She gamely banters in the cafeteria, plays in the firm softball league, and earnestly racks up her billable hours. But when an offensive incident at the summer outing threatens the firm's reputation, Ingrid's outsider status is suddenly thrown into sharp relief.
Scrambling to do damage control, Parsons Valentine announces a new diversity and inclusion initiative, commanding Ingrid to spearhead the effort—just as she's about to close an enormous transaction that was to be her final step in securing partnership.
For the first time, Ingrid begins to question her place in the firm. Pitted against her colleagues, including her golden-boy boyfriend, Ingrid wonders whether the prestige of partnership is worth breaching her ethics. But can she risk throwing away the American dream that's finally within her reach?
"Thought-provoking . . . [a] compelling tale." — Booklist
"Funny, fragile, sometimes bold, often unsure, Ingrid Yung is one of those unforgettable heroines that you actually miss, like a dear friend, when the story's over.'"—Ann Leary, New York Times–bestselling author of The Foundling
"Intriguing and entertaining." — Library Journal
