When betrayal cuts deep, brilliance becomes a weapon

Scarlett Sofani was once just the girl from Des Moines; until her best friend betrayed her. Now, with a mind honed at MIT and fueled by decades of buried rage, she's about to flip the script. Using cutting-edge AI and ruthless strategy, Scarlett launches a stealth tech startup to dismantle a retail empire from the inside out. Her target? Victoria Wilson, the woman who has everything... and doesn't see the storm coming.

Blending gripping narrative with real-world business insight, Scarlett's Revenge is part thriller, part masterclass in disruption. Perfect for readers who crave The Goal but wish it read like Succession. This is strategy with teeth.

Segars, author of the Idea Chase and PNC Distinguished Professor, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill: Through the characters and plot of Scarlett's Revenge, the drama, twists, turns, and unpredictability of competition are revealed.
