In a world where obedience is absolute and individuality is erased at birth, Lucian Graves was never meant to question The Order. Engineered to serve, his thoughts monitored, his identity stripped, he is just another One in a system that rewrites minds like corrupted code. But when a buried truth resurfaces—the name Solomon Graves, a ghost The Order swore never existed—Lucian’s reality begins to fracture. His mother’s silent defiance, his father’s ruthless loyalty, and a rebellion that shouldn’t exist all collide, forcing him to make an impossible choice: obey and survive, or resist and become nothing. Hunted by his own past, betrayed by those closest to him, Lucian discovers that the greatest enemy isn’t The Order—it’s who they’ve turned him into. With his memories slipping, his free will vanishing, and a war he never asked for closing in, he must decide what matters more: becoming the perfect soldier or reclaiming the soul they stole from him.
