Trigger warnings abound. Please look that over before you choose this book. It was one of those that I read in sections because it was really intense and hard to read for long periods of time. It was about a BigLaw (read most prestigious with the most revenue) Law Firm that abuses its first year associates. I'm guessing since the author is a lawyer that most of it is true which is depressing and frustrating and shows just how far our society has NOT come.
Spoiler alert:
does not have a happy ending.
