Publisher's Synopsis
"Will Simona Make a Career in the City's Nightclubs?"
A dark, sensual thriller about survival, secrets, and dangerous choices.
Simona is an ordinary woman with a family to support and a crumbling life. When she loses her job, everything she holds together starts to fall apart: an absent husband, teenage kids to raise, and an ever-growing pile of bills. On the brink of despair, an old classmate - a shady man with ulterior motives - offers her a lifeline: a job as a bartender at the Condor, a notorious nightclub.
Forced by necessity, Simona takes the job, only to find herself in a world darker than she imagined. The Condor is a place where bodies are treated as commodities, and power belongs to those who dominate others. Simona narrowly avoids assault when the club's boss is arrested, but her trials are far from over. As she adjusts to the harsh realities of her new life, she struggles to keep her double identity a secret from her family by weaving increasingly complex lies.
But danger also lurks closer to home: her teenage son begins to suspect the truth. Consumed by jealousy and anger, he challenges Simona in ways she could never have predicted. The tension rises to a breaking point when one of his friends discovers her working at the club. Will he expose Simona's secret? Or will he use his knowledge to manipulate her for his own gain?

Simona lost her job due to downsizing at the company where she worked for fifteen years, and now she sits at coffee shop tables mulling over the past and seeing the dark clouds gathering over her and her family's future.That's when she meets Pino an old friend-if you can call him that-a bully who attended the school where Simona went, and it is Pino who offers her new employment: to be the bartender at a nightclub whose owner he knows.
Even at first glance, and knowing Pino as an un law-abiding man, Simona realizes that she is getting into a bad adventure, but the need for money convinces her to accept the offer.
And Simona soon discovers that the concern about the Condor Club is more justified, because it is precisely in a very bad adventure that she will find herself involved.
