Erin spent half a decade orchestrating the deals, alliances and logistics that turned Marcus into a feared mafia boss while he claimed the public glory. When he openly discards her for a younger assistant and flaunts the affair, she empties sixty-eight million dollars from their accounts and vanishes with their child. Seventy-two hours later the organization fractures — shipments stall, lieutenants defect and rivals close in — exposing the fact that every strategic thread holding the empire together ran through Erin's hands. Marcus is left scrambling to salvage a throne he never actually controlled.
