In a shattered world ruled by the brutal Dragon regime, survival is decided through fear, blood, and games no one truly wins.
Seventeen-year-old Brian is just another "Neutral" — a nobody trapped between rebels and the elite military forces controlling the last remains of civilization. But when a deadly evaluation inside the infamous Echo Facility turns into chaos, Brian witnesses something impossible:
A scarlet-haired assassin known only as Queen massacres the Dragon guards and burns the system to the ground.
Dragged into a rogue rebellion led by deadly operatives with chess-inspired callsigns, Brian becomes "Pawn," the expendable new recruit in a war against a tyrannical empire fueled by secret experiments, genetic mutations, and the terrifying Dragon Gene.
As betrayals deepen and the truth behind the regime begins to surface, Brian must decide whether he is willing to lose his humanity to save what remains of the world.
Perfect for fans of dystopian sci-fi, post-apocalyptic thrillers, dark rebellion stories, cyberpunk warfare, genetic experiments, and emotionally charged action fiction, Crimson Nails delivers ruthless battles, unforgettable antiheroes, and a haunting fight for freedom in a collapsing society.
In the end, survival may demand far more than sacrifice.
