Some lies bury you alive. Some secrets set the world on fire.
Jack Rourke is the perfect scapegoat. Framed for assassinations he didn’t commit, hunted as a terrorist, and tormented by a past that won’t stay buried, he’s running out of time—and out of allies. To clear his name, he descends into the shadows of Black Phoenix, a syndicate so vast and insidious it thrives on chaos itself.
But every step inside costs him. One wrong word could expose him. One betrayal could destroy him. Even those closest to him—Sarah, the hacker who risks everything to help, and Ethan, the old friend whose loyalty shifts like smoke—may not be what they seem.
As Jack slips deeper under Phoenix'''s skin, reality fractures. What if the truth is more dangerous than the lies? What if survival demands becoming the monster he swore to fight?
He thought he was infiltrating the enemy.
Until the night he realized the enemy was already inside him.
Genre: Mystery
