Southern Dons (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798228917385)

From award-winning narrator Will Damron, Southern Dons is a thrilling saga perfect for fans of The Godfather and Succession.

Thirty-five-year-old Ivy Armistead has just been named the next CEO of Atlantic Southern, the powerful Virginia shipping conglomerate that her family has controlled for more than a century. The first female president in company history, she's ready to make her mark as she inherits the job from her father, the legendary Peyton Armistead.

But the night Ivy takes over, she makes a horrific discovery. This is no ordinary family business. It's a front for a generations-old crime syndicate--one that began with colonial plantation owners and has continued to the present day through an intricate web of smuggling, extortion, and murder. And the syndicate's kingpin, whose influence stretches from the Norfolk docks to the Virginia capitol, is Peyton. Who now demands his daughter's unquestioning loyalty.

Confronted with a reality she could never have imagined, Ivy is determined to defy her father and chart her own path forward. But her resistance reawakens a bitter feud between rival American dynasties, embroiling Ivy in a scramble for power that will test her belief in herself, those she loves, and the future she once imagined.
