Plava krv

Magdalen Nabb

Olivia Birkett is a former American model who, after her husband's financial collapse, has to start a business to try to save her family.

Deciding to do what she knows best, Olivia pays back not only all her husband's debts with great enthusiasm and strict work discipline, but also manages to establish herself on the demanding Italian fashion scene with her fashion collection. But when Olivia is kidnapped, many things will go wrong: first, it will turn out that Olivia is not as rich as the kidnappers assumed, and then, completely unexpectedly, her daughter will try to take a leading position in their company.
