DO YOU KNOW THEIR HISTORY?

Tales from the brutal pasts of Jason King and Will Slater, told in breakneck, page-turning novellas…

WHO DISCOVERED WILL SLATER?

Chicago, 2003. For twenty-year-old Will Slater, each day is a matter of survival on the crime-ridden streets of Englewood. Possessed by a rigid moral code, he allies with the city's ruthless gangs only when absolutely necessary, and doesn't hesitate to turn on crews he finds reprehensible. Orphaned at fourteen by a harrowing chain of events, he's walked this tightrope for years without a safety net.

Then it all changes.

A gang approaches with a job that triggers memories he'd rather forget. But once he accepts, he's plunged into a web of deceit. No one is who they seem, and violent events set him on the path to becoming the Slater we all know: one of the most lethal covert operatives the world's ever seen.
