The Last Legacy

Bryn Roth turns eighteen and receives a letter from her uncle Henrik, who summons her to Bastian. She has been apart from the Roths for most of her life, and she arrives eager to prove herself and claim a place among them.

Henrik has plans for her, but nothing is handed over freely. Bryn has to earn the trust of each family member before she can hold any real power. The structure of the family is delicate, balanced between its members in ways she has yet to learn.

It does not take her long to see the darker side of the Roths. Their influence is growing in the upscale parts of Bastian, yet they still deal in the same dirty business that cost Bryn's parents their lives years earlier.

A forbidden romance complicates her position, and the work Henrik sets for her is dangerous. This is a fantasy of family loyalty and criminal ambition. A young protagonist wants to belong and has to weigh how much belonging will take from her. The tone is tense and shadowed, built around her uneasy climb inside a family that may demand more than she can pay.
