SYNOPSIS:

Eleanor “Rose” Kingston has dedicated her life to uncovering the truth, using her investigative skills to take down powerful criminals and protect the vulnerable. Haunted by the tragic death of her mother in a suspicious car accident, Rose has distanced herself from her diplomat father and his world of privilege, carving out her identity as an independent journalist.

When a string of mysterious fires targets financial institutions in Philadelphia, New York, and Chicago, Rose is drawn into a web of corruption and danger. Her investigation reveals that the fires are not random but part of a calculated plan by a shadow organization called The Red Hand, using the chaos to cover up their involvement in child trafficking.

As Rose closes in on the truth, she discovers chilling connections between The Red Hand, her estranged father’s past, and the accident that claimed her mother’s life. With help from Mason, her father’s former bodyguard and her lifelong martial arts mentor, and Adrian Cross, a morally ambiguous cybersecurity expert with ties to the enemy, Rose takes the fight directly to those in power.

Her relentless pursuit leads to high-stakes confrontations, daring rescues, and a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse as she attempts to dismantle The Red Hand from within. Along the way, Rose faces not only the physical threats of a powerful enemy but also emotional battles—rebuilding her relationship with her sister, navigating her unresolved feelings for Adrian, and confronting the secrets her father has kept hidden.

When Congressman Bennet, a key player in The Red Hand, targets Rose during her sister’s wedding, her worlds collide in a dramatic showdown. But taking down one enemy is only the beginning. To bring the full conspiracy to light, Rose must risk everything, relying on her intellect, combat skills, and the alliances she’s forged to ensure justice is served.

In the end, Rose learns that true justice isn’t about revenge or exposing corruption—it’s about protecting the innocent and ensuring those without power are never forgotten.
