Liesel von Holtz was once the jewel of Steinwald, until a scandalous rumor orchestrated by her own stepfamily saw her cast out, stripped of her name, and left with nothing but fractured memories. Now living in obscurity, her world is shattered by the arrival of a lacquered black box containing the deed to a derelict salt mine and a journal penned in her own hand - a hand she doesn't recognize. The journal speaks of a past self, a cunning and vengeful Liesel who orchestrated this entire scenario before her memories were wiped. Armed with this ghost's wealth and a chillingly precise plan for revenge, Liesel must become the woman she was meant to be. Her first obstacle is Kaelen Brandt, the sharp-tongued CEO of a rival company who also has his sights on her family's empire and seems to know more about her past than he lets on. Can Liesel trust the guidance of a stranger in her own skin to reclaim her life, or is she just a puppet in a dead woman's game?
