Behind Lucia's closed eyes, the images refuse to fade: Hermann's funeral, the arrest of Joachim Renz, whispered threats from Mrs. Gross, and the scandal that shattered her husband's reputation. A journey to the Congo, meant to bring clarity, only deepens the shadows. And then-the gunshots in the garage.
Too much. Too fast. Too cruelly intertwined.
None of it was her doing.
And yet, in a twist of fate, Lucia stood at the center of it all.
Now, widowed and alone, she inherits Metallica-a powerful commodities company in Frankfurt-and steps into a world where she is not only unprepared, but utterly alone. A woman surrounded by secrets, suspicion, and silent enemies.
As the past tightens its grip, Lucia must decide: remain a spectator in her own life... or take control, no matter the cost.
