Brutal. Sharp. Addictive.

"This story starts strong. From the first chapter the tension is thick and the atmosphere feels dark and dangerous. Damian Cole is a perfectly written dark antihero — cold, precise, and terrifyingly controlled. Ava feels equally sharp and human as she’s pulled deeper into a world she already knows is dangerous. The writing is atmospheric and confident, every detail sharpening the sense of dread. It’s only the beginning and there’s clearly more to come, but what’s here already works really well. The chemistry and the danger feel real. A solid, addictive opening that makes you want more."
