Summary
BARD isn’t a school. It’s a fortress. A breeding ground for assassins, agents, and saboteurs trained to keep what’s left of the world spinning—or at least from burning completely. There’s no law, no currency, no gods—just orders, loyalty, and the scars you earn following both.
When fifteen-year-old Eddie Larsen is recruited into BARD, he’s not ready for what waits behind its reinforced walls: six teenagers raised as weapons, each mentored by one of BARD’s ruthless department heads. They’re not friends, not really. But they’re all they’ve got.
Eddie’s just trying to survive the initiation, learn the rules, and maybe, one day, feel like he belongs. But when alliances fracture and loyalties shift, he realizes that inside BARD, having each other’s backs often means stabbing someone in the front first.
Because here, no one’s the hero. Not even the ones trying to be.
