In the frozen hills of Korea, ghosts of the past return to fight again.
Winter, 1951. The Korean Peninsula burns under a new and brutal kind of war. Staff Sergeant Jack Mercer, a battle-hardened paratrooper from another time, leads his handpicked squad-the Misfits-on missions few men survive. Trained to move unseen and strike deep behind enemy lines, Mercer and his team navigate a world of ice, silence, and shadows. But when a new offensive threatens to overrun Allied positions, their orders change: observe, report, and uncover what the Chinese are planning before it's too late.
As they push into the snow-choked valleys and treacherous ridgelines of the front, Jack's past begins to bleed through the frost-haunting memories of secret experiments, forgotten wars, and the burden of outliving every man he's ever fought beside. The deeper they move, the more Mercer realizes that the ghosts he carries may be the key to surviving the war-or losing himself to it forever.
