Barović was a city built on corruption, where crime families, political elites, and secret alliances ruled the streets. For years, the old guard thrived in the shadows, convinced that nothing could break their grip on power. But they had not reckoned with Isabella Moretti.

When Isabella inherited her family's fractured empire, she also inherited the weight of its betrayals and dark legacy. Yet unlike those who came before her, she envisioned a different future—not one built on fear and greed, but on progress and possibility. To claim that future, she would have to dismantle the very structures that had once sustained her family's power.

Her battle was never simple. From dismantling criminal syndicates like The Crows to uncovering betrayal within her own bloodline, Isabella fought enemies on every front. Former allies turned against her, politicians and elites sought to undermine her, and the media became a weapon in the hands of those who wished her downfall. In Barović, trust was scarce, and power always came at a price.

Still, Isabella refused to back down. Each hard-won victory demanded sacrifice, testing her loyalty, her resilience, and her vision for the city's future. In her struggle, she confronted not only ruthless rivals but the deeper truth that power alone could not save Barović—it would take courage, integrity, and the determination to rebuild a city's soul from its very foundations.

Murderous Intent is a gripping crime thriller infused with political intrigue, betrayal, and the relentless pursuit of redemption. It is the story of a woman who rose above the shadows of her past to fight for a city on the brink, where every choice could mean salvation or ruin.
