A psychological thriller that drags readers into the brutal, intimate collapse of a soldier who can’t outrun the wars he survived.
Jake Morrison, a 15‑year British Army veteran, walks away from Iraq, Afghanistan, and Northern Ireland believing the worst is behind him. But civilian life becomes its own battlefield. “Family dinners become exercises in pretence… a crowded supermarket becomes a threat matrix with too many civilians and no clear exits.”
Haunted by faces he can’t forget and choices he can’t forgive, Jake is pulled back into conflict as a private military contractor — a world where morality is optional, violence is currency, and survival demands compromise. Titan Security offers purpose, adrenaline, and escape. But every mission drags him deeper into the grey zone between protector and mercenary.
He witnesses corruption, covers up murder, and becomes complicit in atrocities he once swore to fight. “We’re just men with guns protecting other men with money… the only question is how much compromise you can stomach.”
As Jake spirals — losing his family, his identity, and his grip on reality — past sins merge with present horrors. Belfast’s rain‑soaked streets bleed into Baghdad’s dust. The boy he shot becomes the children killed in a convoy crossfire. The nightmares evolve into waking hallucinations, and Jake’s world fractures beyond repair.
When a journalist exposes the truth behind Titan Security, Jake faces the ultimate question:
Is redemption possible for a man who has become the weapon he once feared?
TWISTED is a raw, unflinching descent into moral injury, trauma, and the darkness carried home from war. A story of a soldier who can’t stop fighting — even when the enemy is himself.
