A BATTLE WON. A LEGACY DESTROYED.

General Sean Courtney returns from the horrors of the Great War in France, his mind on his heirs and his legacy. Three potential successors are determined to take on all Sean has built: his beautiful but spoiled daughter, Storm, his corrupt, disgraced son, Dirk, and his new assistant Mark Anders, a fellow survivor of the trenches, carved in his own image and as dear to him as a son.

As Mark finds himself trapped between Sean's two children, impossibly besotted with Storm and tormented by Dirk's jealous loathing, the Courtney legacy lies on rocky foundations. With Sean determined to name a successor, can Mark prove himself worthy before the younger generation of Courtneys destroy him - and the Courtney legacy - in the process?
