Once, Kanne was a trafficked girl left for dead. Now, she's the queen of a rising empire-and she's coming for the woman who once owned her.

Lady B built her fortune on shadows-human trafficking, drug routes, and diplomatic silence. But her past sins are about to bleed into the daylight. When Kanne begins dismantling Lady B's empire from within, a brutal game of survival begins, stretching across West Africa's underworld and corridors of power.

In a war fought with leaks, lies, and assassins, allies will fall, loyalties will shift, and truth will be weaponized. But for Kanne, this isn't just vengeance-it's a reckoning. Even if it costs her everything.

In the end, only one queen can remain.
