PLOT DROP 002. - A new year, a new life
It’s the summer of 1999 and aiden bardet meets ayana holloway and her father. for decades now, club eclatant has been running under the holloway-bardet union and he knows that soon it’ll be ayanna who will be in charge, they embark on an incredible friendship that last them for what feels like an eternity. ayanna, as assumed, becomes the owner of club eclatant and aiden moves up the ranks in his own family business earning the title of ‘boss’. they work together because it’s not only tradition but it feels right. eclatant never felt so safe.
sadly, amiens lost aiden bardet just weeks before the christmas season leaving behind a wife and two daughters. since then, it is his brother andrew bardet that takes over as the new interim boss. he was the underboss up until the death of his brother. a few weeks have passed and an investigation has been set up to find the one responsible for aiden’s murder on the eve of the end of the year ball at city hall, a tip is brought to the attention of the police department that changed the life many in amiens.
there’s more than meets the eye about eclatant. the elusive tipper leaves messages throughout the day like small little puzzle pieces that didn’t quite fit together. when all arrows point to the famous club, the police decide to raid the establishment while everyone is at the ball. andrew bardet has stayed behind to check on some inventory and to welcome the stay of hyde bailey, father of joelle baily, one of the bardet’s advisers. the two men are enjoying a drink when they’re also tipped off; the police is coming, this is a code red. and as discussed in many meetings before, a plan is set into motion. hackers employed by the family wipe al the drives and below the club, there is nothing but empty conference rooms. no signs of criminal activity whatsoever. the police is too late. not only do they find no evidence, they also find two new bodies. hyde bailey and andrew bardet are dead.
while everyone is dancing the night away, the tipper confesses to letting the police on wild goose chase and that they’re the person responsible for the death of aiden bardet. he is detained and held in custody for further questioning but now there are two more victims and no sense to make of it all. the police see it as a victory as the canary sings some more, naming aiden bardet as a mob boss and his brother as the second hand. hyde bailey had been wanted for plenty of criminal activity before and they all feel amiens can sleep in peace for once.
the war on the mafia is over. or so they think. there’s another evil that is rising. nothing like women scorned and while eclatant closes for a couple of days to fix any damages and restore stolen goods, the owner steps away from her involvement as a new group of organized crime is created. cordelia bardet is the wife of aiden bardert and she’s out for blood. welcome to your biggest nightmare.
there is one thing for sure: there’s a mole out there who wants the poison extracted.
