From tire author of Eagles, Heritage, and The
Lion s Way comes a story of love and political
intrigue set within the worlds of big business and
the powers behind the media.
Orphaned during World War II, in a German
bombing raid, Roland Eagles vows to restore his
family s name to prominence in postwar Britain.
Starting with only a bankrupt company, Roland
creates a department-store and newspaper
empire. Against even greater adversity, he elopes
with Catarina Menendez, the beautiful daughter of
the Argentinian ambassador to England. Tragically,
Catarina dies within months, leaving behind an
iniant daughter, Roland s beloved Katherine.
Katherine s childhood is spent amid a pampered
environment of large houses, expensive clothes
and jewels, horses, fast cars, and the adoration of
her father. At sixteen, on vacation in Monte Carlo,
she meets and falls in love with the irresistibly
attractive son of one of her father s German associ-
ates. After conducting their romance from afar for
nearly four years, they finally wed.
For Katherine and Franz, married life is blissful,
made even more so by the births of a son and a
daughter. Franz becomes one of Roland s most
trusted executives, while Katherine s talents as a
journalist propel her to the ttont ranks of Fleet
Street as a reporter on Roland s Daily Eagle -- and
eventually to the glamorous world of television
and her own investigative news program. But
when a hideous accident leaves her young hus-
band crippled,Kathenne s perfect life is shattered.
