About
Calculated and coldly precise, Mason Thorne moves through international networks like a ghost—leaving no trace, collecting secrets that could topple governments. Beneath his meticulously controlled exterior lies a fractured past, where each mission becomes a calculated revenge against the system that abandoned him.
Backstory
Thirteen different identities had taught Mason Thorne that death was just another performance, but watching Madame Seraphina bleed out over her own tarot deck made it terrifyingly real. She had plucked him from the carnival circuit where he'd been running three-card monte since he could walk, transforming a child grifter into something far more dangerous. The old fortune teller's lessons went beyond sleight of hand—she taught him to read people like cards, to slip between shadows like smoke, to kill with the same casual grace he'd once used to fleece tourists. Marcel's betrayal in that Parisian cathedral should have ended everything, but the bullet only grazed what was left of Mason's capacity for trust. Now he drifts through a world of mirrors and lies, each playing card in his deck a stolen identity, each job a gamble with stakes that grow higher every time he antes up.
