THE GRAVE THAT CALLED HIM BACK

Kane, once the underworld leader of the West Coast syndicate "Blood Oath," disbanded his organization and founded Blackstone Group after his wife's death, then retreated to a repair shop to raise his daughter Lia alone. Lia was betrothed to Brad, son of Kane's sworn brother Arthur. On the eve of the wedding, Brad assaulted her, and on the wedding day, Brad and his accomplices violated her, causing Lia to fall and become permanently comatose. Kane learned the truth through surveillance, returned to power, and recalled his old lieutenant Raymond. Arthur begged for mercy and offered all his wealth to no avail; his sister Megan's gang was exposed when Raymond revealed Kane as Blackstone's sole master, and Brad was crippled by Arthur himself, placed under permanent house arrest. To heal Lia, Kane found Eve, a developer of neurological medicine who bore a striking resemblance to his late wife. Eve was harassed by manager Jack; Kane fired him and purged the ranks. Jack incited elder Pino to seize power; Pino kidnapped Lia and Eve but was defeated by Raymond and the underground king Zibelin, with Pino's assets handed to loyal servant Shirley. Eve's miracle drug revived Lia, and she and Kane grew close; Lia encouraged their bond, helping Kane move past his grief. Just then, Victor, the mafia boss who had killed his wife Mary years ago, appeared in Los Angeles, crippled Raymond, and declared war, vowing to destroy everyone Kane loved. A new storm descended, and the final showdown loomed.
