In the roaring 1920s, Thomas Hale makes a promise at his dying mother's bedside: he will rise above poverty and become a man the world cannot ignore. Driven by ambition and sharpened by sacrifice, Thomas seizes every opportunity that fortune offers, building an empire from risk, cunning, and relentless determination. From the glittering gem trade to the ruthless world of industry, he climbs higher than he ever imagined possible, earning wealth, power, and the admiration of a city that once would not have noticed his name. But success comes at a cost. As friendships fracture, love turns cold, and betrayal festers in the shadows, Thomas finds himself haunted by the choices that built his empire. In a world where loyalty can be bought and ambition consumes all it touches, every victory leaves another scar. When the Great Depression shakes the foundations of the nation, Thomas discovers that the greatest threat to his empire is not financial ruin... but the ghosts of the life he abandoned to build it. Me, Myself and I is a haunting tale of greed, sacrifice, and the terrible price of becoming exactly what you once dreamed to be.
