A broken phone. A soldier’s last message. A conspiracy that will leave no one untouched.

One dismembered body was just the beginning.

When journalist Milo Wolfe receives a mysterious invitation to a funeral that never happened, he uncovers a web of lies that reaches the highest echelons of power. As he digs deeper into a shadowy military operation known as Balqis, he realizes the story goes far beyond a single murder. Iit’s the story of a lifetime.

But Operation Balqis is more than just another cover-up. It’s a doorway into a nightmare of experimental weapons, butchered soldiers, and powerful figures who treat human lives like laboratory rats.

The trail of breadcrumbs leads Milo into the darkest corners of military intelligence, where he uncovers a truth so explosive it’s already gotten multiple people killed. Someone is watching his every move. His sources are disappearing. And the only person he can trust is a mysterious hacker known as Nemesis, who might be playing a game of their own.

As the body count rises and the conspiracy reaches into the highest levels of power, Milo realizes he’s not just chasing a story – he’s being hunted by people who stage fake funerals to hide real murders. People who employ contract killers to silence whistleblowers. People who will stop at nothing to keep their secrets buried. And Milo just became their next target.

Milo must decide: Is exposing the truth worth risking everything – including his own life?

Blood Will Have Blood is a white-knuckle thriller set in a shadow world where every revelation costs blood, every friend could be an enemy, where the truth itself might be the deadliest weapon of all, and the next body might be yours.
