Synopsis

Barr None is a story of corruption, secrets, alliances, betrayal, and an unsolved murder case, all set against the backdrop of New York City Big Law, written by former Big Law insider, Amy Impellizzeri.Carly Jenner is a rising star attorney at one of the most prestigious law firms in New York City: Barr Knoll LLP, named for the larger-than-life founder for whom Carly has wanted to work since she was a little girl. Carly’s closest friend at the firm and in life is her colleague, Rain Street—the brilliant, gritty daughter of a prominent film star.Rain is obsessed with the fate of three former Barr Knoll associates known colloquially as the “Triplets” as they were inseparable friends and lawyers. Ten years earlier, following a boozy law-firm function at Barr Knoll’s Riversedge New York estate, the Triplets crashed their car on the way home. The circumstances of the Triplets’ death raised the suspicions of the local DA, and manslaughter charges were filed. But the charges were quickly dismissed, and the files were sealed.When Rain goes missing after a drunken night, Carly doesn’t know what to make of her disappearance. But clues are starting to point to a powerful woman at the center of the Triplets’ case, whose identity is still unknown. She is referred to only as the “Times Square Madam” in redacted legal papers, and for years she apparently worked with young female associates at Barr Knoll.In a dual timeline flashing between the present day and more than a decade earlier when the Triplets were still alive, a story unravels of lies and deception and power grabs at Barr Knoll from the past that have had a lasting ripple effect. Carly and Rain have been unwittingly caught in a firestorm not of their own making, and suddenly Carly finds herself in a life and death race against time to save her career, Rain—and so much more.
