Description
Bernie Sampson, once a daring field operative, now finds himself confined to the mundane world of bureaucratic intelligence work. Tasked with a seemingly pointless mission, he embarks on a journey that leads him deep into the shadows of history. As he wrestles with the monotony of paper-pushing, he becomes increasingly aware of the secrets buried beneath the surface of what he thought he knew.
This unexpected assignment plunges Bernie into a web of intrigue where past and present collide. With each step, he unearths forgotten stories and voices long silenced, challenging his perception of loyalty, truth, and the consequences of history. As he navigates through layers of deception, Bernie discovers that every document holds a tale, every encounter a lesson.
Set against a backdrop of rich historical detail, the narrative unfolds as Bernie grapples with his place in the world. His quest is not just about uncovering the past but also about reconciling with his own lost sense of purpose. In a poignant exploration of identity and legacy, he learns that history has more to tell than what merely exists on the written page.
