Veil of Shadows

Havana "Vex" Blackthorne - a 22-year old female criminal - found her new passion in taking down corrupt government organizations. She's brand new to it, figuring out the ropes entirely by herself. She sneaks into government organizations, escapes high-speed chases, and lives life on the run. She's been in life-threatening situations more times than she can count on her fingers. She always has an escape plan.

But now, she's really in for it.

Pulled over for speeding in a restricted zone, Havana's reckless driving catches the attention of more than just local law enforcement. It draws the gaze of two men who couldn't be more different, but whose goals are frighteningly aligned.

First, there's Alexander "König" Kilgore, a shadow in the chaos. Cold, relentless, and calculating, König hides his face behind a mask that does nothing to soften the menace in his eyes. He's all business-driven by a hunger for answers, and he's not interested in playing nice.

Then there's Simon "Ghost" Riley, a man cut from a similar cloth. Calm, methodical, and just as dangerous. While König seeks answers with brute force, Ghost prefers the long game, the psychological warfare that puts people's minds to the test.

Havana knows how to navigate the game. She's survived this long by keeping her secrets close and her enemies closer. But neither König nor Ghost are like anyone she's ever faced. König's icy resolve and the quiet fury beneath Ghost's stoic exterior force her to confront the one thing she can't outrun-the shadows of her own past.

As her path intertwines with both men, the stakes grow higher, and Havana must decide who to trust. Both offer a chance for something more-something beyond the mission. But with every twist, every new revelation, Havana finds herself pulled deeper into their web of danger and betrayal. And in the end, she must choose between two men who will stop at nothing to get what they want-while challenging her in ways she never imagined.
