As alliances fracture and truths surface, one thing becomes growth is never painless. What blooms in darkness often draws blood in the light.
This is a thriller
the cost of ambition
the violence of silence
and what happens when integrity threatens the wrong people
Taut, atmospheric, and unflinching, There Will Be Thorns explores power, accountability, and survival in systems that demand obedience—but punish conscience.
*There Will Be Thorns* is a tense, thought-provoking thriller that explores power, loyalty, and the consequences of difficult choices with remarkable depth. The atmosphere and moral complexity kept me engaged from beginning to end.
I really enjoyed There Will Be Thorns from start to finish. Kept me engaged in wanting to know & understand Onyx (Jemeka’s) story as an Operative. Adding Crystal made the book even better!!
