The Heir of Ashes

At Mercy Heights Hospital, 25 years ago. Fiona MacCrae gives birth to a boy in the private wing. Delilah Gantz, a nurse drowning in debt and threats from unknown financiers, is given a list: Swap MacCrae’s infant with the one in Room 203. That baby is weak—meant to be discarded. But Fiona’s boy? He has strong vitals, healthy lungs, rare blood markers. Delilah, conflicted but trapped, makes the exchange and delivers the wrong child to the Virelli couple—Sebastian and Isla—who never suspect they’ve taken home a stranger. Meanwhile, Fiona and Malcolm MacCrae board a flight later that year… and it explodes mid-air. Their child, the real Leo, is quietly adopted by the Cruz family—Eduardo and Yvette—who never knew his origins. And so begins the rise of a young man who will, one day, unearth a buried empire.
