To build an empire, you need power. To keep it, you must survive your own blood.

Johnny Smith is a rising kingpin – cocky, sharp, and seemingly untouchable. But when his deadbeat traveller father Joey **reappears after years of abandonment, he brings a storm that threatens to level everything Johnny has fought to build. Driven by ambition and manipulated by appeals to family loyalty, Johnny expands his turf into Dagenham, unknowingly stepping on the toes of the formidable **Vic Malone.

For Nora, history is repeating itself in the most painful way. She warned Johnny that greed changes men, but her pleas fell on deaf ears. Now, caught between a husband consumed by power and a father-in-law plotting a devastating betrayal, Nora's world is about to be shattered, and she must make a chilling choice to secure the ultimate revenge.

Spanning the dark and dangerous underworld of 1960s London, Book 2 in The Legacy Series is a gripping, relentless gangland thriller about pride, sacrifice, and the ultimate price of a father's sins.
