One Life Passes for Another

About the Book

“I was rewarded for being afraid,” Teri Lang confesses as her respectable life begins to shatter. Working her way into the city’s circle of moneyed elite, Teri’s career excels at a lightning’s pace. Embracing the rules of the powerful who chart her meteoric rise, Teri accepts their honors and benefits from their connections. But just as her future approaches the brink of limitless success, Teri meets a young radical whose personal mission is to destroy the web Teri has so slavishly served. A study in greed and politics, One Life Passes for Another takes the reader through a complex canvas of characters, agendas and motives. It is a story of ideals gone astray and the nameless drive that leads even the well-intentioned into places they never thought possible.
