A mother's grief. A soldier's truth. A conspiracy that rewrites the meaning of justice.

When NATO officer Claire Donovan loses her husband in a war-zone explosion, she's left to face the battlefield of grief—pregnant and alone. But when the child she births disappears under mysterious circumstances, and a body she's told is her daughter's doesn't feel like closure, her life takes a dangerous turn.

Haunted by fragments of classified evidence left by her late husband, Claire uncovers a dark military-biotech experiment—one that may involve her child and hundreds like her. As she navigates a labyrinth of espionage, betrayal, and silence from those she once trusted, Claire forms unlikely alliances: a German intelligence whistleblower, a hacker haunted by past crimes, and her estranged ex-military father.

From covert operations in Albania to black site facilities buried under U.S. soil, Shadows of Duty unravels a chilling conspiracy—where DNA is currency, children are prototypes, and war was just the beginning.

With every truth uncovered, Claire must ask herself: how far will a mother go to reclaim her child?

Perfect for readers of Gregg Hurwitz, Stieg Larsson, and Gillian Flynn, Shadows of Duty is a haunting political thriller of maternal vengeance, buried secrets, and the fragile humanity beneath uniformed orders.
