Kerri’s troubles are not confined to the corporate world. Her decision triggers disastrous consequences doled out by the Internal Revenue Service. In her quest to provide financial relief to the estates of deceased Iacardi employees, Kerri choses to give away to the Iacardi estates every cent of the fortune accruing from her father’s tainted trust. Desperate to salvage value for their Iacardi stock, the shareholders launch a billion dollar lawsuit against Kerri, and vote to have her removed as president. Enerco, a gigantic Houston based energy trading company, conspires to purchase Iacardi & Sons, and employs every dirty trick in the corporate playbook to accomplish that objective. Peter Tavaris, Walter Deaks, and Billie Dukes, the three surviving New York employees, are vehemently opposed to Kerri’s continuing leadership. Charles and Mario Iacardi, the company’s founders and financial providers, are dead. Virtually all of the cards and circumstances are stacked against her. Tormented by the loss of all but three of the company’s New York employees, and driven to provide a source of income for the families and loved ones of the Iacardi employees who died on that terrible day, she begins the fight to rebuild the company. Everything was perfect, until the company was nearly decimated by the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. She was the president and CEO of Iacardi & Sons, one of the largest and most successful commodity trading companies in the world.
