Blacksite: Deep Cover: Clean Sweep! Livre de poche

Some systems don't hide people. They rename them.
Jessica Smoke has survived black sites, buried commands, and men who believed secrecy could become law. But after the fall of Harbor, the real war begins-not against one facility, one commander, or one conspiracy, but against a hidden network old enough to turn rescue into debt and witnesses into property.
Terramare was never supposed to exist.
The volcanic island does not appear on official maps. Its chapel road conceals a root archive beneath black stone. Its people speak in customs, patterns, and warnings older than Deep Cover itself. And under the island waits the truth Graves tried to bury: the fourteen hidden branches of Ashen Hand were not built in separate rooms. They were born from one system designed to survive exposure by changing its name.
Money. Weapons. Identity. Transport. Law. Media. Memory. Burial. Medicine. Politics. Faith. Technology. Rescue. Punishment.
Each branch has its own language. Each language has victims. And every file Jessica opens reveals another way power learned to make captivity sound like care.
With Rachel forcing trauma into evidence, Zero turning corrupted systems against their own lies, and Gage fighting through extraction routes where hospice wards, transport schedules, and charity registries become weapons, Jessica must lead a clean sweep that does more than breach doors. She must dismantle the meanings those doors were built to protect.
Because Mercy is not just a woman.
Mercy is a definition.
And if Jessica cannot break the language of Ashen Hand, the machine will keep saving people only to own them later.
