Bratva Reckoning

Salvage diver Luka Beridze has spent two years hunting Pavel Raskov, the Bratva enforcer who walked into his family's boatyard and killed his younger brother Dato.

Cornered at last, Pavel does not fight; he kneels, offers his throat, and asks why Dato was left where his family could find him when so many others simply vanished.

Already marked by the empire he betrayed, Pavel came back to the city that wants him erased for a new name and a clean disappearance, not for the brother of the man he murdered.

He did not expect to be known all the way down, or to want, against every ruined instinct, to remain.

A finder is tightening the net, a grieving cousin means to collect in kind, and the blood between hunter and killer will not wash out.

The only way either of them lives is to disappear in earnest, if they can set the debt aside long enough to run.
