hat if the life you thought was normal was built on secrets?

Alex is fifteen years old and living what seems like a perfect life in the beautiful city of Venice. He goes to school, spends weekends watching football with his parents, and wakes each morning to the quiet magic of canals and stone bridges. But beneath the calm surface of his world lies a truth far more dangerous than he could ever imagine.

One ordinary afternoon changes everything.

An unexpected attack reveals that Alex’s parents are not who they appear to be—and that the safety he once took for granted was never guaranteed. As hidden enemies emerge and familiar streets turn threatening, Alex is forced into a world of secrecy, pursuit, and survival. Cut off from protection and hunted through the winding lanes of Venice, he must rely on instinct, courage, and determination to stay alive.

This fast-paced thriller blends suspense, emotion, and mystery against the haunting backdrop of one of the world’s most iconic cities. At its heart, it is a story about family, trust, and the moment when childhood ends and responsibility begins.

And when the story ends, the choice is yours.

Alex stands at a crossroads—one path leads toward training, danger, and life in the shadows. The other promises safety, distance, and a chance at normality. The decision determines which book you read next.

This is not just a story.
It is the beginning of a journey.
