Jamie McGregor built Kruger & Brent with his own sweat and
sacrifice in the diamond mines of South Africa. Kate
Blackwell has taken Jamie's dream and built a business
empire adding to the families' wealth by expanding Kruger &
Brent to other avenues, such as real estate and the
Internet, making money hand-over-fist and putting Kruger &
Brent at the top of the business world. Kate's life is a
long one, but she can't live forever, so at the reading of
her will, she is very specific about who will be running
Kruger & Brent. Instead of her only surviving daughter,
Kate has chosen her grandson Robert Templeton to take over
the family business on his 25th birthday, causing a family
battle of epic proportions.
As a child, Lexi Templeton was a vivacious young girl
completely unaware of the tragedy surrounding her
privileged world until it touched her personally and
changed the course of her future. Lexi's brother, Robert,
acted out during most of her adolescent years, causing a
rift between their father and himself. When Robert makes a
decision that affects control of the family business,
Kruger & Brent, Lexi is in the running for the top seat.
However, the personal and professional obstacles she must
overcome are vast, putting her in a position to do the
unthinkable. Lexi is determined to become mistress of the
game, no matter the cost.
Tilly Bagshawe has taken the McGregor-Blackwell saga
and soared to new heights with this next-generation epic
novel. The in-depth characters and the exciting, yet dark,
twists and turns are irresistible.

blinding devotion to his bitter and twisted mother, he
will seduce, betray, and even kill to succeed.
