A web of deceit. A conspiracy of revenge. And family secrets around every turn.

Savannah Webster's life finally seems to be going right. She's happily planning her second wedding to attorney and ex-husband Hez and dreaming of their future at TGU, the university founded by her family. But a string of earthshaking blows threatens to destroy it all. Savannah is passed over for a tenure position but is then offered the role of university president. But saving her beloved university will put her at odds with her father--and there haven't been many times in her life that she's been able to stand up to him. And even though Hez claims to be sober, there's an empty wine bottle in his trash. How can she continue to trust him?

Hez's Justice Chamber has continued to pursue the artifacts that are being smuggled through TGU as well as the fraud and corruption that put the university's survival at risk. When the Justice Chamber members are attacked and Hez lands in the hospital with a head injury, it's clear that the danger has not passed. Someone is out for revenge. And sometimes the secrets lie a little too close to home.

The twists continue until the final pages as a complex world of smuggling and financial instability collides with the complex dynamics of family in this not-to-be-missed second book of the Tupelo Grove series.
