Soon, she finds herself immersed in a tangle of corruption and greed extending far beyond anything she could have imagined, as the forces that have worked to keep this hidden will stop at nothing to keep it secret. In the high stakes game of corporate greed and government corruption, can Cara beat the odds and win?
