Cole Bennett was fired in the rain for the crime of being poor, trusting, and exactly who they needed him to be. They stole his work, his status, and his wife, believing they had finally disposed of him. They were mistaken. Cole Bennett was never real.

When the dust finally settles, only two figures remain in the dark: The ruler of the empty throne, and the woman who was never his handler—only ever his equal.
