TWISTED

Jake Morrison spent fifteen years in uniform across Iraq, Afghanistan, and Northern Ireland. He knows how to fight — he just can’t figure out how to stop. Civvy street feels hostile: supermarkets turn into threat assessments, a backfiring lorry drops him flat, and the family he loves feels like strangers he’s supposed to protect. So when an old comrade offers work as a private contractor — good money, familiar ground — Jake steps back into the only world that still makes sense.
Titan Security gives him purpose, then corrodes it. “Extractions” that look like kidnappings. Civilian deaths written off as “regrettable engagements.” A slow descent into the kind of violence no uniform ever asked of him. Jake keeps telling himself there’s a line he won’t cross. Then he crosses it. Then he signs the paperwork that erases it.
When a war correspondent finally asks the question he’s spent years avoiding — do you ever wonder if you’re the villain in someone else’s story? — Jake has to face the man he’s become.
TWISTED is a psychological thriller about moral injury, the private military industry, and what’s left of a soldier when the war doesn’t end
