"Wild female buddy thriller"

The three successful business women had never met when they were at the top of their respective game. Tess McDonald managed a highly respected escort service; Nikki Perez was a sleuth; Kim Sheppard-Benning had built the successful Sheppard Enterprises and had a wonderful spouse.

All three meet after their lives already crashed when the elevator in the building housing their gynecologist gets stuck for several hours. They exchange names and tales. Tess lost her business to her twin who arranged a police raid; Nikki was convicted of a crime her former lover committed and spent time behind bars; Kim's husband is suing for divorce and demands control of their business or else he will reveal her deepest secret to the media. The trio forms a sisterhood to avenge the affronts they suffered from so called loved ones.

These three tough sisters from different walks of life and races make a bond that will intrigue the audience as they avenge the wrongs done to each of them. The story line is driven by the trio as their exchanges are fun to follow starting with the chocolate incident in the elevator and ending with one more item to clean up. Fans will enjoy this fine tale of merciless hurt women fighting back after facing a near ten count.
