PHOENIX SERIES

In ancient mythology, the Phoenix is a bird associated with the gods. According to the myth, the bird lives in Arabia. Only one phoenix at a time is supposedly in existence.

When death approaches, the Phoenix would build a nest of wood and set it on fire, then is consumed by the flames. When it was burned, a new phoenix emerged from the pyre.

“Abby was never strong enough to do what needed to be done. She never would have done half the things she’s done without me.”

Abby Smith was just a small-town reporter working for a small daily newspaper. As far as she's concerned, she has a mediocre career and an even more mundane life.

Then a man in prison begs her to help him clear his name. A week later, the man is dead and she sets out to get justice.

Her quest leads her down a dark and tragic path.

Like the mythical bird, she rose from the ashes of her old life to become Phoenix, a woman bent on destroying the man responsible for taking away everything she loved.

Michael Ryan was a cop, about to lose everything, until he was given the opportunity of a lifetime.

As he rises to the top, he meets Phoenix and falls hard for her, but soon begins to realise she is not what she seems.

Together, Phoenix and Michael work to expose the truth as their relationship deepens.

Even if the eventual cost is more than either of them is prepared to pay.

Michael begins to realise that for Phoenix, the fight is not just for her life. It's for her sanity.

Can Michael save her ... from herself?

“Look, the best we can do is keep talking to our contacts and hope they can warn us before anything bad happens. As long as we stick together, okay?”

Abby and Michael return with a new purpose.

Raphael Martinez is in jail, awaiting trial for murder.

Abby is once more rising from the ashes of her old life to start anew. She has a new job, a new life and a relationship with the man she loves.

She is finally able to put Phoenix behind her.

Yet even as Abby and Michael begin working together to bring their enemy to trial, a new threat arises in the form of Raphael's own employers.

The Mob has been exposed and the New York crime families are out for revenge. Rumours begin to fly as to the nature of that revenge.

They bring in a professional; someone with a link to Phoenix's past. Someone who has developed a dangerous obsession.

Abby’s own nemesis returns when the life of someone she loves hangs in the balance.

Will her love survive this new test or will she lose herself forever, destroying everything she has worked for?
