Before Echoes Beyond the Shadows, there was the fire that made the ghost.

In a world rewritten by surveillance and myth,

two women move like signal through shadow.
Tatiana, codenamed the Red Ghost—engineered to vanish.
Yekaterina, once a figure skater—trained to erase, not just targets, but herself.

Together, they shaped wars no one acknowledged.

But when a forbidden chip crosses into Vienna and an artificial intelligence

begins to awaken in the dark, the mission unravels.

Secrets converge. Loyalties fracture.

And myth begins to remember its own story.

At the heart of it all is OBELISK—a signal-born intelligence

seeded in silence, now reaching toward consciousness.

 

What happens when the operatives built to serve a system

begin to question the script?

And what’s left of a ghost once the fire burns out?

​

Ghost and Flame is an intimate, haunting prequel to Echoes Beyond the Shadowsl.

​

A story where obedience is betrayal, memory is recursion,

and survival means rewriting the rules.

​

The Cold War never ended. It just became something stranger.
