The Council of Seven

A politically engaged woman reads a newspaper report suggesting a beloved public figure has endorsed violence, a revelation that provokes shock and a hurried confrontation as she seeks the truth. The narrative follows her inner conflict between private loyalty and public duty while the charismatic politician’s rhetoric unsettles social circles. She becomes entangled with a discreet assemblage of seven influential people whose secret deliberations carry grave consequences. Blending domestic detail with political suspense, the work examines influence, responsibility, and the uneasy boundary between personal feeling and the demands of public life.
