Despite his misgivings, he acquiesces to the arranged marriage with the new governor's daughter, Margaret. She brings with her a substantial dowry that will help him achieve his objectives. As love blossoms between them, life seems perfect.

However, a longtime rival lurks, determined to thwart Philippe at every turn. As Philippe's power and influence on the island grows, their quarrel escalates to new levels of treachery.

When the feud turns deadly, can Philippe survive the ordeals that await and safeguard the future for his family?
