Berserker (Legacy ofHarper, #5)

Anger is a fire. For Somu, a gentle, chubby teenager in love, that fire is a dormant, world-ending power. When a devastating betrayal by his childhood love ignites it, he loses everything—his family, his freedom, and his very self—in a single night of hallucinatory rage. In the brutal world of prison, he finds an unlikely mentor who teaches him to harness his inner demon, forging him from a broken boy into a disciplined warrior. Released after five years with a new purpose—to protect his mentor‘s innocent niece—Somu believes he has a second chance at life and love. But he soon learns that his entire journey, from his greatest joys to his deepest pains, has been a meticulously crafted experiment. Hunted by a powerful and mysterious organization led by the sinister Dark Matter, Somu is manipulated at every turn. Every new hope is systematically targeted and destroyed, pushing him closer to the edge. When the last person he loves is brutally torn from him, the final restraint shatters. The man is consumed, and the mindless, rage-fueled entity within is fully unleashed—a being of pure destruction known only as the Berserker.
