Shadow Mark
Jamie Ryder thought he was just a soldier trying to survive the ghosts of his past.
But when a secret program known as Genesis awakens beneath Harlem, Jamie discovers that his memories, his family, and even his identity have been shaped by forces that marked him long before he ever chose a weapon.
To some, he is Jamie Ryder.
To others, he is Specter, the command host tied to a network of hidden cradles, buried experiments, stolen children, and forgotten soldiers turned into weapons.
As Jamie fights to save his mother, his little brother, and the people trapped inside Genesis, he is forced to confront the truth behind Shadow Mark, the organization that once claimed to protect the world. What he finds is darker than betrayal. Shadow Mark was not built to stop Genesis. It was built around it.
With Emily, the woman who sealed his memories, Tilly, a deadly swordswoman fighting her own buried past, Cross, a broken genius running from his sins, and his family caught in the middle, Jamie must decide what kind of man he will become when every system wants to turn him into a weapon.
But saving the world may mean opening the one door inside his mind that should have stayed locked.
And once that door opens, something older, colder, and far more dangerous answers back.
Shadow Mark is a cinematic action thriller about memory, family, identity, survival, and the terrifying cost of being chosen by a machine that never believed you were human.
