When Isabella perishes in a devastating roadside collision while fleeing Robert's thugs, Caroline cuts emotional ties with her neglectful mother. Partnering with sharp investigator Simon Gallagher, Caroline embarks on a covert surveillance mission to document Robert's illegal transactions, determined to hold the sinister predator legally accountable before he drains the household dry.
