The first time Ruth Yancey saw Fox''s Earth--the magnificant Georgia Estate of the wealthy & privileged Fox family--she was a child who had known only poverty & abuse...yet she knew in her heart it would someday be hers. Years later, as Ryth Yancey Fox, she would enter it''s gates, vowing not to just live there, but to rule. And in the decades to follow she would pursue her dream with a vengence--dominating everyone & everything under her roof. For nothing & no one would ever take Fox''s Earth from her--no matter how much schemeing & subterfuge was required...or how many lives she had to cruelly destroy.
