    Summary

    Eve Polastri, a 39-year-old overworked lawyer in New York, is a master of her craft but a disaster in her personal life. Living off stale almond milk and capers she doesn’t even like, her spotless apartment is a reflection of her absence rather than any sense of order. Devoted to her career, she navigates endless client meetings, piles of paperwork, and sleepless nights, all while ignoring the disarray of her own emotions.

    Villanelle graduated from law school a few years ago—top of her class, obviously. Fast forward, and she’s just landed a job at her dream firm. Finally. This is it. *This* is when her life really starts. The glamorous late-night meetings, the high-stakes cases, the power suits.

    Except now she’s here, in her shiny new office, staring at an inbox full of nonsense and wondering when exactly the “dream” part is supposed to kick in. Surely, there’s more to it than sitting through endless conference calls where everyone uses the word "synergy" like it means something.
