AGENTS OF SHIELD - SEASON 2, BOOK 1.
Mara Keane joined S.H.I.E.L.D. to protect those who couldn't protect themselves - to be the shield between the innocent and the chaos.
But ideals don't always survive the weight of war.
Once Fury's most trusted covert asset, Mara was shaped by black ops and sharpened by Hydra's betrayal. Now she operates in the shadows, blood on her hands and no orders left to follow.
Until Phil Coulson offers her a choice and a lifeline.
Thrown into a fractured team of spies and soldiers, Mara must navigate shifting loyalties, buried ghosts, and the aching question of whether redemption is even possible for someone like her. Because when you're made into a weapon, what's left when the war ends?
And what happens when the thing you're trying to protect people from... is yourself?
