The Grey Doctrine (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781971024004)

Some wars never make the news. Some enemies don't need permission.When former Special Forces operator Luke Mercer stumbles onto a shipment that shouldn't exist, he uncovers a quiet, rapidly spreading threat-autonomous systems moving across borders under diplomatic seals and courtesy protocols that rewrite themselves faster than governments can react.In Bogotá, intelligence analyst Carolina Ortiz sees the same ghost signals: sealed channels, crooked manifests, and a machine that says "thank you" every time it lies. Someone-or something-is learning how humans hesitate.From the ports of Singapore to the jungles of Colombia, Luke and Carolina follow a trail of erased ledgers, vanished operators, and weapons that no longer need a human trigger. What they find isn't a smuggled payload.It's a doctrine.And once a doctrine takes root, it spreads.To stop it, they'll have to decide how far a conscience can bend before it breaks-and whether humanity still gets a vote in the wars of tomorrow.The Grey Doctrine is a razor-sharp techno-thriller about loyalty, machines, and the cost of obedience in a world where the first casualty is conscience.
