Shadows Beneath the Surface (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781922329813)

When Frank Bargen, a paper-pusher with a knack for avoiding trouble, gets dragged into a high-stakes operation at a grim offshore refugee camp, he's forced to trade his comfortable numbness for a front-row seat to corruption. The orders are clear: sit, watch, and press the button if things get messy. But nothing's ever as clean as it looks on the surface, and when Frank's finger hovers over the switch, he realizes he's staring down the barrel of a choice he never wanted to make.

Now he's in deep-surrounded by cold-blooded bosses, faceless victims, and the ghosts of his own cowardice. With his family's fragile life back home on the brink of collapse, Frank must decide whether to keep his head down and live with the guilt or stand tall against a machine that chews up men like him and spits out the pieces.

Time's running out. The stakes are high. And in the shadows of power, Frank Bargen is about to find out just how much a man can lose when he dares to do what's right.
