She had thought keeping a low profile would guarantee her a peaceful life, but she never imagined that danger had been silently closing in since the moment Mr. Hawthorne died. She wasn't the only one who understood the weight of her skills. Alexander knew, and so did the shadowy forces lurking in the background.

She had always believed the dangers she faced were limited to the Gaylord family's revenge and Harold's schemes. It never occurred to her that she was caught in a much deeper game.

'It’s just casting a long line to catch a big fish. The powers that are after the core technology will eventually get greedy and show their hand.'
