Her investigation becomes even more muddied by cryptic emails, her overprotective brother convincing his enigmatic friend to keep an eye on her and a bombing that lands her in hospital. Instead of being intimidated, BreeтАЩs resolve is strengthened. These powerful men canтАЩt continue to get away with profiting from actions that already resulted in the loss of countless innocent livesтАФactions that would cost more lives unless Bree gets to the truth. And exposes it.
