❤️❤️❤️ A Fresh Take on Espionage and Inner Demons ❤️❤️❤️
What starts as a war veteran’s struggle with trauma quickly morphs into something much bigger—and more terrifying. Lithium is a rollercoaster of paranoia, hidden tech, and a global conspiracy that feels eerily plausible. The voice in Raff’s head is hauntingly well-written, blurring the line between madness and higher purpose. A bold, explosive start to what promises to be an unforgettable series.
