Adrian Sterling has everything money can buy—but he has never been able to buy trust.At thirty-two, Adrian is one of Nigeria's most powerful billionaires and the CEO of Sterling Global Holdings. Behind his wealth and success is a painful secret: eight years ago, his father died under mysterious circumstances, leaving Adrian with questions nobody was willing to answer.Then Amara Okoye walks into his life.She's young, brilliant, independent, and strangely fearless. During a press conference, she publicly questions Adrian about a suspicious business acquisition. But what shocks him isn't her question. It's what she says afterward.“Your father didn't die the way you were told.”Adrian soon discovers that Amara's father, Emmanuel Okoye, was connected to his own father's final investigation—and that both men died under suspicious circumstances.Amara has spent years searching for the truth. She knows someone powerful is hiding behind a web of stolen money, secret companies, and carefully buried evidence.Adrian doesn't know whether he can trust her.Amara doesn't know whether she can trust him.But when they begin investigating together, they uncover a conspiracy that reaches deeper into Adrian's family than either of them imagined.As danger closes in, secrets begin to surface, old enemies return, and Adrian finds himself drawn toward the one woman who may know more about his past than anyone alive.But Amara is hiding a secret of her own.She didn't come into Adrian's world by accident.She came because she knows who destroyed both their families.And the person responsible is still alive.In a world where money can buy almost anything, can Adrian and Amara uncover the truth before the truth destroys them?
