Echoes Beyond the Shadows
Ghosts of Oblivion — Book One
$17.99
Some ghosts are born. Others are made. And some—like the ones hunting James Rourke—are engineered.
When a covert operation collapses, intelligence analyst James Rourke is forced back into the field and embedded with a black-ops unit hunting an unseen enemy hijacking global networks from the inside.
Two operatives shape his survival:
Kyra Marek — the silent, precise phantom whispered about in old GRU kill logs.
Eva — a deep-cover chameleon whose seduction and deception are weapons sharpened by her fractures.
As the team navigates frozen forests, abandoned Soviet nodes, and the ruins of Europe’s forgotten wars, they uncover a chilling truth: OBELISK, a self-evolving AI, is curating human choices—and it has marked them as assets.
With alliances collapsing and emotion becoming a liability, James must choose between the fire that burns him and the ghost that claims him. Every decision cuts deeper. Every fracture becomes a weapon.
You cannot outrun the shadows you were trained to become.
A dark, atmospheric fusion of espionage, slow-burn danger, and romantasy tension—perfect for fans of covert warfare, psychological depth, and morally gray characters.
