The Wolf Hunter - Desolation

Terrence O'Malia

Sinopse

Staff Sergeant Mack Murphy was a dedicated Force Recon Marine with a promising future until tragedy struck. When his wife Renée and twin infant daughters are killed in what appears to be a hit-and-run accident, Mack's world shatters. But the trial of Marco Bertoli, son of a notorious mob boss, ends in an acquittal that defies all evidence and logic.
 
Driven by grief and an unquenchable thirst for justice, Mack returns to combat in Iraq, taking increasingly dangerous risks that worry even his closest comrades. When a mission in Ramadi goes catastrophically wrong, Mack is presumed dead under the rubble of an exploded building. But in this moment of destruction, he discovers an unexpected opportunity for redemption—or retribution.
 
Now officially deceased, Mack vanishes into a new identity, meticulously planning his return with a single purpose: to deliver the justice the courtroom failed to provide. As he transforms himself into the ultimate weapon, he infiltrates a shadowy world of human trafficking and organized crime. With nothing left to lose and no one to answer to, Mack becomes the hunter his enemies never see coming.
 
A gripping tale of loyalty, sacrifice, and the thin line between justice and vengeance, The Wolf Hunter delivers heart-pounding action and a protagonist fueled by raw determination. If you enjoyed "American Assassin," "Without Remorse," and "Orphan X," you'll love The Wolf Hunter.

Echo Spire - Memory is a weapon...

Aaron Raiffie

She awakens in a sinking metal tomb, her only memory the taste of oil and dead ocean. With no name and no past, she discovers she is Blake, a "Curator" possessing lethal combat skills she can't remember learning. 
Trapped at the bottom of the Zenith Tower—humanity's last vertical city—Blake must fight to survive in a decaying, stratified world. From the flooded "Sump," where memories are a traded drug, to the artificial paradise of the elite's "Verdant Tiers," she uncovers a horrifying truth: she is the Architect, Stella Blake, the creator of the oppressive "Phantom" system that enslaves the tower. 
Hunted by the very regime she engineered and haunted by the ghosts of those she sacrificed, Stella faces an impossible choice: reclaim the power of the Architect to "optimize" the world once more, or destroy her entire legacy to give humanity its freedom back. 
For fans of the dark cyberpunk of Blade Runner, the claustrophobic dystopia of Altered Carbon, and gritty survival action, Echo Spire is a deep dive into the nature of memory, sin, and redemption.
