Publisher's summary

Attorney Craig Malcault’s special problem is a blessing in disguise: Colleagues in the intelligence community at times do not trust the mental faculties of the rogue, former special operations agent. He could have been Craig’s favorite client. The international spy rings with their own agendas need his expertise. Ara Pacis,’ the failed state’s notorious, covert leadership is preparing for another power grab, but now the complete destruction of Ara Pacis by any means is the spy rings’ ultimate goal.

If the failed state survives, its secrets will test the sanity of mankind, and the agent has the key to that experiment.

Craig knows the agent wants a new life, but is he ready to take on the risk? The case will bring Craig one step closer to solving the mystery of Ara Pacis' sinister world where the extrajudicial killing of unarmed non-combatants can be the norm. As much the classified, covert leadership has promised Craig. Noblesse oblige when the law and morals don’t.

The Series Just Keeps Getting Better!

I’ve been hooked on this series since the first book, and this one doesn’t disappoint. The storyline picks up right where the last one left off, and was completely drawn into the world again. The characters continue to grow, and the action is intense. Honestly, I couldn’t put it down. What I love most is how ithe author deepens the plot without losing any of the excitement. It’s rare to find a series that stays this strong. I’m really looking forward to seeing where the story goes next. If you’ve enjoyed the previous books, you’ll love this one as well!

Philosophical Questions

This book had deep philosphical questions about the nature of relationships and life in general. The depth of the material did not make it hard to follow! The book was very descriptive and included beautiful nature filled imagery. The book is long but it kept your focus and was a joy to experience.

SO INTERESTING!!

In this intense thriller, Craig Malcault, a tenacious human rights lawyer, finds himself tangled in a high-stakes game of espionage. The narrative revolves around his precarious alliance with a rogue ex-special operations agent, whose unstable mind is both a blessing and a curse. As Ara Pacis, a failed state with a notorious secretive leadership, gears up for a new power play, Craig is drawn into a perilous mission to uncover and potentially dismantle the state’s dark secrets. The stakes are alarmingly high: if Ara Pacis survives, its hidden horrors could challenge the very fabric of human sanity.
Craig must navigate a murky world where traditional values and legal boundaries are often overridden by the brutal realities of covert warfare. His journey forces him to confront the blurred lines between morality and duty in a landscape where survival often comes at a steep price.
This gripping thriller isn't just highly recommended; it's an absolute must for anyone who dares to delve into a world where every choice could be a matter of life or death!

The Story

I love adventure stories and the war for the cave sun; I never heard of it. I listen carefully to the story as the narrator shares the series with light and darkness. What caught my attention was chapter 3, pain, where the narrator mentioned the character George was worried about his future and was always concerned for his life when George was sick. This was interesting, and I could not comprehend it at first, but with time, I understood the series' depth. It's an exciting audiobook; it's very long but a good adventure.

I found myself immersed in the war and conflict, eager to see how each new turn would play out.
