becomes clear that this had always been his function—to
take the brunt of the backlash and shield the men in power
from the maelstrom they'd created. Abandoned by his friends, his family, and the industry his

in a beautiful anti-tobacco lobbyist who he's secretly
loved for years. Together they hatch a plan to fight
