Revenge is harder than it looks
Two years after escaping from an ISIS prison in Mosul, a once successful Turkish war photographer is still a mess.

But discovering that his former torturer is hiding a secret much greater and more dangerous than any terrorist plot, Hazar realizes his plan for revenge has led him back into the war where people are just game birds forced to fight for pleasure and profit.
