Thriller

Marcus Chen is a failed building inspector with a dangerous secret. He can read the "structural memories" of any building he touches. When a luxury high-rise collapses, Marcus uncovers a fifteen-year-old murder buried in the foundation, and the killer is the city’s most powerful developer. Framed for the crime and hunted by corrupt police, Marcus must race to find the bodies hidden in the city’s skyline before the trauma of his visions breaks his mind.

Adrian Kaine was once the deadliest operative in Shadow Unit, a black-ops division buried so deep in the government that most agents never lived long enough to speak of it. But when a mission in Kargath Province turned into a massacre, Adrian became the sole survivor, then the government’s most wanted traitor. His squad was slaughtered. Evidence was planted. His name was erased. And those who orchestrated the betrayal made sure he was declared dead. They miscalculated. Eighteen months later, Adrian resurfaces as a ghost in the ruins of his old headquarters, hunting for the truth buried beneath the ashes. But he is not the only one searching. Marcus Hale, his former teammate and supposed friend, now leads a covert kill team tasked with eliminating him. Above Marcus sits Colonel Mason Kade, the official who signed the order that condemned Adrian’s entire squad. And watching all of them from the shadows is a faceless mastermind known only by a single encrypted codename: Cipher. As Adrian follows a trail of classified leaks, dead operatives, and impossible coincidences, he uncovers a horrifying secret: a covert plan known as the Ashen Protocol, designed to rewrite the balance of global power—using bodies like his as the foundation stones. But the deeper he digs, the more the truth twists around him. Old allies hide new agendas. Enemies speak with familiar voices. And the real traitor may be closer than he has ever imagined. Hunted by governments, mercenaries, and a ghost from his past, Adrian must become something colder than a soldier and deadlier than a weapon. He must become the nightmare they tried to bury. And this time… he’s not the one running.

Two years later, he learned the bitter truth—they had been snatched away by the cold hands of death. Having lost this battle to destiny, Edward grew up in the bustling city of San Diego. The heir of a glorious empire was forced to live a life of loneliness and abject poverty.

Every move he makes brings him closer to danger. And this time, failure isn’t just about losing his life. It’s about being silenced. Forever.
