Plot

Six months after the end of the second season, Emily pursues a new strategy after revealing to Jack her true identity she is Amanda Clarke and to take down the Graysons once and for all – on her and Daniel's wedding day – as turned allies, new enemies, and ghosts from the past threaten to expose her. With an ultimatum from Jack and her complicated history with Aiden resurfacing, Emily must take extreme measures to ensure her plan goes off without a hitch. But Victoria has new reasons to destroy the girl next door, and with her long-lost son by her side, everyone – including Nolan – may become collateral damage in Emily and Victoria's vicious war.
