A classified mission. A vanished squad. A descent into unspeakable horror.
When a Marine reconnaissance unit disappears deep in hostile jungle during a black ops mission, command scrambles to uncover the truth. What starts as a standard recovery turns into a nightmare as a CIA operative and a Delta Force team are sent to extract the missing Marines-only to find evidence of escalating atrocities and chilling ritualistic violence.
As the task force pushes deeper, they uncover a terrifying transformation: the Marines have devolved into a feral, predatory pack, driven by isolation, psychological collapse, and a sinister experimental program gone wrong. The hunters become the hunted in a relentless cat-and-mouse pursuit through the jungle, where every shadow hides a new horror and every discovery reveals the thin line between civilization and savagery.
Told through dual timelines and multiple points of view, MANIC is a relentless psychological thriller that exposes the darkest corners of the human psyche under the pressures of war. Inspired by the real psychological tolls of conflict25, this novel is perfect for fans of military fiction, psychological horror, and gripping thrillers that confront the cost of institutional betrayal and the true nature of atrocity.
Keywords: war novel, psychological thriller, military fiction, Marine recon, CIA, Delta Force, jungle warfare, psychological horror, PTSD, war crimes, unreliable narrator, combat trauma, institutional cover-up, military experiment, moral injury, survival thriller
Face the jungle. Face the truth. MANIC-where the greatest threat comes from within.
