Six months to live. A lifetime of secrets. When business magnate Alastair Winthrop is confronted with his own mortality, a mysterious letter from his dead father plunges him into a treacherous game of blackmail and corporate intrigue.

With everything on the line, including a fragile chance at reconciliation with his estranged daughter, Olivia, Alastair must choose: protect a corrupt legacy or risk everything to expose the sins of the past. In a battle where time is the ultimate enemy, will redemption be Alastair's final victory, or will the embers of yesterday ignite a fire that consumes them all?
