New York, Vienna, Prague, Montevideo, Mendoza 1947. The war sputtered to an uneasy close, but in the back alleys of cities still cloaked in smoke, another kind of conflict has begun-one that plays out in shadows, half-truths, and false identities. Max Calder, a former intelligence operative, wants out. Out of the Bureau. But when a ghost from his past-the elusive agent known as Artemis-resurfaces with a warning, Calder is pulled back in. The Bureau is chasing a secret called the Mirror-a project so classified that even its architects have vanished or been silenced. It's said to control time, memory, even identity itself. As Calder tracks the Mirror's echoes across empty safehouses and wartime graveyards, the lines between hunter and hunted begin to blur. Artemis may be an ally. Or she may be a weapon. And Calder? He may not even be who he thinks he is. As bodies pile up and truths unravel, Calder must navigate a world where nothing stays still-where every room slides just a few inches sideways when you're not looking. In the end, he'll face one impossible choice: Burn the truth... or become it.
