Damon Thorne
A rival tech magnate who was once Valerie's mentor and business partner. He was ousted in a bitter boardroom coup five years ago, and has nursed a cold, patient grudge ever since. He has tracked Valerie to the lodge, using the storm as cover to confront her with incriminating documents he believes will destroy her company—and her. He is manipulative, cunning, and sees emotional leverage as his sharpest weapon.
