Since the age of 18 Joseph has been an assassin fighting a generations-old secret war for a cause he believes in, but does not fully understand. The only rules he lives by are no killing of innocent bystanders and no killing anyone under 18; with horrendous penalties for any who break them. The public remain completely unware of the covert battles fought out on their streets. When Joseph is sent away on a punishingly dangerous assignment, he falls in love with Maria. Soon he discovers the only thing more dangerous than fighting a war is trying to leave it.
A generations-long war thats claimed thousands of lives, waged in perfect secrecy beneath the clueless noses of people like me Oh, hell yeah. Children of Paranoia is a claustrophobic, relentless, fascinating ride that will have you eyeballing everyone you pass in the street. I cant wait for the sequel.Marcus Sakey, author of The Two Deaths of Daniel Hayes
"A gripping journey into a secret war where literally anyone could kill you. Like The Bourne Identity turned inside-out, his protagonist navigates a world where banal choices like going to the ATM have life-and-death consequences. Filled with sharp plotting and vivid action, this book will stay with you long after you've raced to the end."Chris Farnsworth, author of Blood Oath
