Dillon was a man who knew how to disappear. A former Navy SEAL who had traded the battlefield for the silence of a drifter's life, he thought he'd left the world of high-stakes shadows behind. Then Eleni appeared-a ghost of the OSS with a legacy of blood and a secret that shouldn't exist.
The Hunt for the Codex. Eleni isn't looking for treasure; she's hunting a pre-WWII manuscript that contains the blueprints for a power that predates the modern world-and threatens to dismantle it. But she isn't the only one in pursuit. The Umbra Syndicate is closing in, determined to seize the dark architecture of the past and weaponize it for a new era of control.
From the canals of Venice to the jagged peaks of the Andes. Joined by his tactical partner Oscar, Dillon is swept into a lethal game of mirrors across Europe and South America. But as safehouses burn and trust dissolves, Dillon realizes the most dangerous thing in the room isn't the Syndicate's bullets-it's Eleni's resolve.
She hasn't come to be saved. She has come to strike a match.
In a race against an enemy that thrives in the dark, Dillon must decide if he's willing to stand in the path of the fire-or if he's the one who has to help her light it.
