About the Book

Four young people graduate from one of America’s finest universities NYU. They have been more than friends during their freshman years but for the class 2008 graduation brings the shock of reality as they face the real world. The NYU graduates decide to go their different ways unaware of the tragedies that will befall them in their pursuit of wealth and fame in the real world of materialism and man’s inhumanity to man. Their families are from different walks of life, from excessive wealth to working class. We live in an insanely competitive and individualistic world . . . one that worships, money, possessions, perfection and celebrity that never let us take a step off the treadmill. This is a drama of insurmountable proportions where, tragedy, murder, betrayal, fraud and industrial espionage are all part of their tremulous journey in the real world and the reality that with every decision we make there is always a price!
