Overkill: Operation Falling Star Book #3
The Epic Conclusion to the Operation Falling Star Trilogy“This isn’t just survival. This is redemption.”
In the jungles of Guyana, the line between right and wrong blurs in the face of betrayal, power, and sacrifice. Dirk Lasher, a man forged in the fires of war and loss, is drawn into a mission that forces him to confront not just his enemies, but the deepest corners of his own soul.
In a world ruled by chaos, Dirk’s greatest battle is with himself.
Torn between the raw survival instincts instilled by Noah, his unyielding mentor, and the wisdom of Wade Clay’s reflection, Dirk is a man searching for meaning. His journey intertwines with Trudy “Bonsai” Bonnington, a fearless lieutenant whose vulnerability cuts through Dirk’s hardened exterior, and Jimjim, a spiritual guide whose teachings on balance and connection offer Dirk a glimpse of hope.
But Kimberly Sharp—a ghost from Dirk’s past—looms large, wielding power that threatens to unravel everything. As alliances are tested and enemies close in, Dirk faces impossible choices. To fight. To forgive. To move forward. And ultimately, to discover if he can truly break free from the cycles of violence that have defined his life.
