Olivia is stripped of her status, robbed of her fiancé, and banished to a remote border post by her callous adoptive siblings. Rather than perishing in obscurity, she spends eight grueling years mastering high-level intelligence warfare while acting as guardian to the imperiled heirs of the country's most formidable families.
When her former abusers launch armed strikes to eliminate the children, Olivia coordinates with Don MacRae to stage an overwhelming counterattack. Dragging her treacherous relatives before the grand tribunal of the East Coast Committee, she permanently cuts biological ties while claiming supreme executive leadership over the syndicate.
