Clara, a junior associate at Vance and Harlan, gives her dark blue winter coat to a shivering homeless woman outside her Fifth Avenue office building, receiving only a heavy copper coin with an anchor symbol in return. Angered by this “unbecoming” behavior right before an important client meeting, senior managing partner Douglas Harlan fires her on the spot. Facing immediate eviction with only sixty-two dollars to her name, Clara receives a mysterious navy blue velvet box at her Astoria apartment, which opens using the copper coin to reveal a lucrative job offer from Vivian Albright at Albright Capital. Despite Harlan’s efforts to hold her final paycheck, blackball her in the legal industry, and cover up his own corporate motives regarding the Albright files, Clara uses her strict knowledge of labor laws and regulatory frameworks to stand her ground and secure her future.
