She knows which banks will fail, which roads will close, which medicines will stop arriving, and what a tin of salt will be worth by September. What she does not know yet is that Cesare and Vittoria have been sleeping together for two years, and that everything they did to her at the end, they were already rehearsing at the beginning. This time she is going to keep her warnings to herself and buy the warehouse first.

Then his mistress approaches her with a secret of her own. She wasn't Gideon's only victim. As the two women reluctantly join forces, Elise uncovers evidence that reaches far beyond her husband's betrayal.

Now Elise has one goal: expose the man she once loved before he destroys everything her father left behind. Because once you've been betrayed by the person you trusted most, you learn a painful lesson: Once bitten, twice shy.
