Wolves roam the college campus. A blizzard rages in full force. Society teeters on the brink of collapse as journalist Maya Hawthorne arrives at the home of the famous Philip Stern.?
Maya, an "advance" obituary writer for the New York Times, arrives not with a bouquet, but with a pen and a lifetime of cold fury. She is here to draft the final account of Philip Stern—an aging college president who sees this interview as the crowning jewel of a storied career.
To Maya, he is the man who ruined her life years earlier, an architect of systemic rot. As the snow begins to bury the house and the howl of wolves echo outside the walls, the interview begins.
This is not a story about sexual assault; it is a female revenge play set against the backdrop of a society on the edge.
