The Queen in the Cold

She built the surveillance state. Now it wants her dead.

Marguerite designed Aegis to protect the world. Instead, it became a weapon. When the Court decides she's a liability, she runs—straight into Luca, the man her system tortured into a perfect killer.

He's been sent to bring her in. But in the cold streets of Prague, the hunter and the mastermind discover something the machine never predicted: each other.

To survive, she'll have to burn everything she built. To stay human, he'll have to break every rule he was programmed to follow.

Because when you've spent your life designing cages, falling in love feels like treason.
