About the book:

A breakneck dystopian thriller from the mind of New York Times bestselling author Marc J Gregson.

When he was just fourteen years old, Malcolm Jennings was conscripted by a corporation, got addicted to rage-inducing drugs, and was turned into one of their disposable child soldiers.

But Malcolm isn’t a child anymore.

He’s the ultimate survivor—a relentless, unstoppable killer, tested by years of battle on a pollution-ravaged Earth. That makes him the top target for the eco-activists fighting corporate rule—but they don’t want to stop him. They want to recruit him.

Eager for revenge against those who stole his life, Malcolm and his new allies infiltrate the reigning authority’s twisted business school—a 1920s mob-era simulacrum where the next generation of ruthless executives are groomed to out-gangster each other in an all-out crime war.

The stakes could not be higher.

For Malcolm, it’s his only chance at payback. For everyone else, it may be their only chance to save the world outside.
