Jordan Lewis never set out to break the rules. As a rising Gadgeteer at Orbis's flagship Berkeley Square store, he sold high-end tech by day and kept the Insight Bar running under pressure by night. When Amara Nsubuga joined the team, their chemistry was instant-an off-the-clock connection that fizzled, then reignited a year later on the other side of the counter.

But the real spark came from a different kind of offer: a customer who hinted that a "gesture of goodwill" might be worth cash in hand. At first, it was pocket change-seven pounds fifty for a quick replacement. Then came the resellers: organised, methodical, and willing to pay hundreds per day for discreet swaps. Jordan and Amara told themselves it was harmless. No one got hurt. And besides, wasn't it good customer service?

As queues grew, pressure mounted, and the store's glossy façade began to crack, the pair found themselves deep in a routine that was half-work, half-heist. Code names. Burner phones. Cash drops in side streets. The thrill was addictive. The money was life-changing. The risk was easy to ignore-until the morning a manager called them into the back office.

Gesture of Goodwill is a sleek, high-stakes tale of temptation, loyalty, and the fine line between helping someone out and helping yourself to everything.
