In a kingdom on the brink of unrest, Thalia is an assassin bound by duty, trained to carry out her missions without question. When an unexpected assignment leads her to eliminate a high-ranking target, she believes it's just another task. But as the consequences of her actions ripple outward, she begins to realise the truth: nothing is ever as simple as it seems.
In the shadows, unseen forces move-forces that have been watching, waiting, and manipulating the pieces of a much larger game. Thalia's mentor, a man from her past, has his own agenda, and the choices she makes will decide far more than her next mission.
As alliances shift and danger closes in from every direction, Thalia finds herself at the heart of a war that has been fought quietly for years, with no clear victor in sight. In this deadly game, silence is the most dangerous weapon of all.
The Silent War is a story of hidden motives, untold consequences, and the quiet battles that shape the fate of a kingdom.

Delacroix
Thalia Langley vanished ten years ago-just another pregnant teenager swallowed by the dark, clutching a secret that could get her killed. Now, she lives on the fringes, raising her daughter in silence, always running, always hiding. Because monsters don't stay buried forever. Hers wears a Russian name-and a bloodstained legacy. Then he finds her. A man with a storm in his eyes and ruin in his hands. He drinks whiskey like water and leans on drugs like crutches, a fragile framework holding back the chaos he barely contains. His voice is smoke and broken glass, his touch too rough to be kind, and his eyes-those wild, ocean-blue eyes-burn with a madness Thalia isn't sure she wants to join. He sees through her lies. Watches her like prey. And he doesn't ask questions-because he already knows too much. She knows he's not safe. But danger has a heartbeat, and it's starting to sound like his. Now the Russians are circling, the past is breaking through the walls she built, and the man who shouldn't care is the only one who sees her. If he finds out what she's hiding-who she's protecting?
