   Summary

   When Torianne Sutton stumbles upon a strange manual in the restricted archives, she doesn’t expect it to lead to a sudden promotion, or a brush with death on her first day. Assigned as executive assistant to the Director of SOLDIER, Lazard Deusericus, she finds herself navigating political intrigue and a certain silver-haired general with a sword the length of her career trajectory.

   As she attempts to rein in the inner workings of SOLDIER, Tori learns very quickly that sabotage is subtle, ambition is dangerous, and the most powerful weapon in the building might just be an assistant with a clipboard.
