G.O.R.G.O.N. (Series)
Cassandra Kent has tried to be a good person her entire life, she works for non-profits, doesn't eat meat, and marches for causes she believes in, but that’ll all be put to the test when she finds out that her grandfather - who her mother’s never mentioned - is the head of the world's number one evil organization... and Cassie is set to take over the mantle after his death.
G.O.R.G.O.N. is an action comedy where the globe-spanning, spy adventures of James Bond meets the dysfunctional family and backroom scheming of Succession as we see a young woman struggling to adjust to her new life at the helm of the world’s most villainous organization.
