She survived her husband. Now she has to survive the man who watched her do it.
Selene Moreau built one presidency and destroyed it. Now she's tethered to Damian Wolfe - a man who uses her ambition as leverage and her loyalty as a leash - and the only way out is through.
But the path is darker than she anticipated. Ghost Cargo, the Titans' most buried secret, is surfacing in pieces - and every fragment she uncovers puts her further from safety and closer to a truth that could collapse everything, including her.
Then Rhys Callahan walks into her world. A dead man with a living agenda. She doesn't know yet if he's an ally or another trap.
Damian is watching. The Titans are circling. And Selene is running out of moves that don't cost her something she can't get back.
In this world, mercy is a liability. But so is losing yourself to win.
