Asphalt Gospel

In the rain-bleached city of Port Mercy, a highway maintenance man from the wrong side of the tracks claws his way into the elite circles of the State Transportation Authority. But every paved mile is bought with a lie, and when a federal investigation tears open the asphalt, the weight of his ambition crushes everything—including the men who once trusted him. A cold-eyed procedural about class, corruption, and the deafening silence of a man who sold his soul for a corner office.
