Kolade_Damilola
Rhea Vale arrives at Luca Moretti’s mansion for her sister Serena’s engagement party, only to find Serena dead in a fire that destroyed the east wing. The official story blames an accident, but Rhea suspects murder—and everyone around her seems to be hiding something. As Rhea investigates, she discovers her “father” Malcolm Vale isn’t her biological father at all. She was stolen from James Castellano’s family as an infant, making her the heir to a billion-dollar criminal empire. Malcolm has been using her identity for years, and now that she knows the truth, he wants her dead. With Luca’s help, Rhea uncovers that Serena wasn’t just an artist—she was an undercover investigative journalist exposing organized crime. Serena left behind journals, evidence, and contingency plans, knowing she wouldn’t survive to finish her mission. Now Rhea must complete what Serena started. But the conspiracy runs deeper than Malcolm. Richard Vale—Malcolm’s business partner who faked his own death—is the true puppet master. He’s been manipulating everyone from the shadows, and he’ll burn down the world to claim the Castellano fortune. Rhea also learns she has a biological mother, Chiara, who’s been alive all along. And Serena had a biological sister—Tara Wynn—who’s been searching for her for twenty years. But Tara arrived too late. Serena died before they could reunite, and now Tara blames everyone connected to Serena’s death, including Rhea. Trapped between Richard’s ruthless ambition and Tara’s grief-fueled revenge, Rhea fights to survive while exposing decades of corruption. She’s committed to a psychiatric hospital, escapes fires, discovers hidden evidence, and races against time to stop Richard before he destroys everyone she loves. With Luca by her side—despite his own dark past working for his criminal father—Rhea must navigate a world where trust is deadly, family is a lie, and the only way to survive is to burn it all down. The war for truth, justice, and the Castellano legacy has only just begun.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
