She's adopted. He's wealthy. Then there's the devoted physician. Addyson has everything... except her life.
For years, Addyson navigated her world by the tap of a cane and the strict commands of her guardian, Alex. He controlled every aspect of her life, keeping her tucked away from a world he claimed was too dangerous for her to feel.
Behind closed doors, those protections feel more like a prison cell. Addyson isn't a ward-she's a prized trophy. While Alex feels like a constant threat, Dr. Jefferson feels like a lifeline, steering her toward an elite culinary academy. But Dr. Jefferson isn't just offering an escape; she's looking for a way out of a dark syndicate she's been trying to dismantle for years.
To live forever, the wealthy clients have been quietly harvesting life from vulnerable communities.
Joining forces, Addyson and Dr. Jefferson set out to destroy the network. But as Dr. Jefferson slowly unwinds the past, Addyson's own history turns dark-unearthing the sinister truth of who Gilda Rae really was. It shattered everything she believed about her bloodline.
Now, with the elite closing in, Addyson turns the tables. She teams up with Dr. Jefferson to host the most extravagant gala the city has ever witnessed. The guests are about to be served a deadly taste of their own poison.
