30 epsLover&Brother, MyFoes
Standing before a burning corporate laboratory while nursing a bullet wound, the betrayed investigator realized her fiancé and brother traded her life for offshore millions.
Liza grew up inside a California crime family and handed her trust to her husband Jack without a second thought. On their anniversary she learns what that trust bought: a mistress, a plot to kill her father, and a scheme to seize the family's power for himself.
She does not scream or run. She hires George, a top assassin, as her bodyguard and starts laying traps. A faked death, a staged return, an arms deal rigged so Jack empties his accounts to buy an empire that turns out to be hollow. Each move strips him of money, allies, and the Eagle Brand he killed for. Jack's counterattack is vicious, and George's loyalty is the only thing standing between Liza and a grave. Somewhere in the middle of the con, the arrangement stops feeling like business.
