Last Gate
(2026)(The third book in the Ordinary Man's War series)
A novel by Alex Miles and John Walker
Owen Mercer was told to stop looking.
The war is winding down. The files are sealing shut. The classified chain that swallowed his son has moved on to other rooms, other names, other quiet erasures. Everyone keeps telling him the same thing.
Let it go.
Then a sealed door answers a signal it was never supposed to hear — and a name Owen has carried for years stirs inside a system that doesn't believe in survivors.
He has one team left. One narrow window. One last gate between him and the boy the institution has decided is easier to forget.
Some men fix machines.
Owen Mercer is about to find out what breaks when a father refuses to.
Genre: Science Fiction
