Blood and Collateral

In the rain-slicked streets of Cresswell, Adrian Vane returns with a single purpose: to annihilate the Harlan dynasty that cast him aside decades ago. Armed with a forged identity as a financier and the bitter knowledge of a predatory lending scheme that killed his mother, he orchestrates a slow-burning corporate takeover. As the Harlans’ bank crumbles under legal siege and their heirs fall one by one, Adrian discovers that the hunger for retribution is a chasm no victory can fill—only a final, bloody sacrifice will close it.
