The Marshall Protocol

At sixteen, Lillian Marshalls did the unthinkable to protect her sister - and paid for it with everything she had.

Ten years later, she's still paying. Wanted by the law and living in the shadows of Chicago, she's built something unexpected: a team, a purpose, and the closest thing to a family she's ever known.

But the city is rotting from the inside. Corruption has taken root in the justice system, and when Lillian starts pulling at the threads, she uncovers something far darker than dirty officials - a ghost from her own past, a dangerous weapon being deployed on the streets, and a enemy whose grip on the city grows stronger by the day.

The deeper she digs, the more she risks losing everything she's rebuilt. Her freedom. Her team. The people she's learned to love.

And the one thing she swore she'd never do again - trust the system that already destroyed her once.
