Shadow Ledger

SHADOW LEDGER

Rank is a weapon. Secrets are the ammunition.

Captain Isa Coombs is an elite SAS operative returning to the front lines. After being passed medically fit following a struggle with PTSD, she is a woman defined by her precision and her preferred weapon: the Glock 19. But her return to the unit isn't the homecoming she expected.

Coombs finds herself locked in a bitter, volatile professional rivalry with Lieutenant Lynda Summers. While Coombs is a battle-hardened Captain, Summers is a secretary, a Lieutenant whose authority and attitude clash instantly with Coombs’ field experience. They have hated each other from the moment they met during retraining, and now, at each other’s throats, they must navigate a high-stakes conspiracy that threatens the heart of the Ministry of Defence.

As the mystery of the Shadow Ledger unfolds, the line between old friends and new enemies blurs. Amanda Jones, an old army mate of Isa’s and now a lawyer within the MOD, re-emerges. Together, these women are pulled into a web of administrative betrayal and military secrets where the only way to survive is to navigate the lethal politics of Whitehall.

In a world where surnames are used as shields and rank is a cage, the truth is the most dangerous asset of all.
