Trapped in a world of lethal training and insidious psychological manipulation, Trent must navigate a labyrinth of lies where every memory is suspect and every alliance is a potential trap. The architects of his new reality want to forge him into the perfect operative, but they underestimated the one thing they can't erase: his will to survive.
In a war where the most dangerous battlefield is the human mind, can he win himself back?
