Synopsis
Downside Risk is the story of Jason Conrad, a successful entrepreneur; his wife, Melissa, a conniving sycophant whom he blindly trusts; and an older woman, Bella Kaplan, his beloved mentor, surrogate mother, and the hypotenuse of a most unusual love/hate triangle. Risk examines the complex and deceitful interpersonal relationships between Jason and the two important women in his life, as well as their bitterly antagonistic struggles with each other. Spanning the seven-year period from the founding of Jason's company, JACorp, and his initial rise to wealth and power, through devastating losses that follow, this tale of personal and corporate intrigue captures the decadence of the nouveau riche set against the vivid backdrops of Los Angeles, Reno, Vegas, and Paris.
