As the community awakens to the aroma of spring, an unexpected blackout plunges the village into eerie silence, signalling the onset of chaos outside its idyllic confines.

With critical infrastructures failing and communication systems down, Rehurt’s instincts kick in. The seemingly peaceful day turns chaotic as residents grapple with the unsettling quiet and loss of normalcy.

He delves deep into a web of political intrigue and shadowy adversaries. Along the way, he confronts not just external threats but also ghosts from his past, challenging his resolve and pushing him to his limits.

In a race against time, John Rehurt becomes the last line of defence, ready to face the ultimate confrontation that tests not only his skills but also the very fabric of his identity. This gripping tale of espionage and resilience reveals the tenacity required to protect a world teetering on the brink of collapse.
