Jason Hill’s gripping thriller pulls back the curtain on the emotional and psychological cost of life in the shadows. Tony Collyns once served his country as a covert operative, carrying out orders that demanded moral compromise. Years later, he is left with the ghosts of those missions—ghosts that won’t stop whispering.

The book examines the hidden burden of duty—what happens when service to a cause comes at the cost of your soul. Many veterans and intelligence officers face this reality. The classified becomes personal. The unseen scars run deeper than any visible wound.

In Tony’s case, the conflict is escalated by a looming global crisis and political betrayal. But the real tension is internal. He’s not just at war with the enemies in his world—he’s fighting the man he once became to survive.

Hill’s portrayal is raw and cinematic, but deeply empathetic. It reminds us that behind every act of national duty, there is a person who has to live with the consequences. And sometimes, the most heroic act isn’t pulling the trigger—it’s choosing not to.
