But when an op to find a key player in the terrorist network goes wrong, and a successful attack is launched on Westminster Hall, the Syndicate begins to suspect that Mariam's family is somehow involved. To make matters more devastating, Juliet's serious boyfriend, Jean-Marc, is targeted and killed, leaving her grieving and even more determined to stop the war.On Syndicate orders, Juliet is paired with a dashing, arrogant FBI agent, Graham, to infiltrate Mariam's family to prevent further attacks. As much as Juliet dislikes Graham at first, she cannot deny their connection, or the comfort that comes from being able to share her work with him, something she was never able to do with Jean-Marc. With Graham, Juliet embarks on a dangerous journey toward survival and love, as they cross the globe from London to Riyadh, Paris to Istanbul, and Moscow to Chechnya's City of the Dead to put an end to the war that cost them both. And when Mariam discovers the truth behind her family’s involvement, she joins Juliet and Graham in their quest. But when peace means a stunning betrayal, Juliet must decide if her mission and achieving equal rights for women in the region, justifies the crushing defeat of others.

In The War on Small Business, entrepreneur Carol Roth unveils the many abuses of power inflicted on small businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic.
