The Employee Who Knew Too Much follows a white Danish woman working inside a modern Copenhagen logistics tech firm as she watches an unremarkable male colleague rise to power without talent, authority, or results—only secrets. By quietly collecting damaging information on executives, managers, and coworkers, he becomes untouchable, protected by the very people he could expose. As the narrator realizes how deeply leadership depends on his silence, she must choose between integrity and survival inside a system that rewards leverage over honesty.
