Phantoms of Guilt

The world Anna knew is gone. Left broken by a mission that claimed the lives of those she trusted most, she runs through the shadows of Europe and Eurasia with little more than a bloodied lab coat, a memory stick, and the pills barely keeping her alive. Memories haunt her at every turn-the faces of the fallen, the weight of her survival. Every step feels heavier, every fleeting refuge more fragile.

When she crosses paths with Knox, a man as guarded as she is, it feels less like salvation and more like a trap. He claims to know more about the experiments that tore her life apart, yet every word he speaks sounds like a half-truth. Their alliance is uneasy, fraught with mistrust and silence, yet Anna has no choice but to follow him as they flee through Athens, Russia, and Madrid, chased by enemies she cannot outrun.

Knox talks of redemption, of making the project humane, but Anna isn't sure she believes him-or if she even wants to. Her body is failing, her mind is splintering, and the pills that sustain her are running out. All she knows is the unrelenting weight of guilt and the fragile hope that maybe, just maybe, she can find a way to stop running and start fighting back.

Phantoms of Guilt is an emotionally charged journey through survival, loss, and the fragile threads of trust that bind the broken. It is a story of resilience in the face of betrayal and the unyielding hope that, even in the darkest moments, there is something left worth fighting for.
