    Summary

    He wades in it now, eyes still open, fixed on the speckled ceiling, begging himself not to crave bomb blasts and artillery fire in his childhood bedroom. Although…there might be something beautiful about it all, Johnny supposes, those noises in the thick. The gasps in between discharge that say: I’m here, I’m a part of this song too.

     

    After a near-fatal injury, John MacTavish finds himself back in his hometown in Scotland. Fresh off an untimely discharge, he's forced to cope with disability, his dysfunctional family, and the lingering knowledge that there are some things he's just not ready to leave behind...

    Summary

    Ghost and Soap love each other. This is not up for dispute. They will never say those words out loud. This is also not up for dispute.

    Summary

    Yearning, Ghost realizes, aches even deeper than a bullet wound.

    He’s trained himself not to desire, the same way he’s trained his body to sprint while in full tactical gear, the same way he’s trained his eyes to focus through a sniper scope for hours on end.

    But he’s never wanted someone—anything—like he wants Soap.

    Summary

    To become Ghost was to kill Simon Riley, to abandon human wants and needs because a ghost did not want or need. All that’s left behind is a name for the KIA records and a lethal specter that’s property of the British government, something that exists only to point and shoot when told.

    A Simon Riley character study, of sorts.
