Description

He’s a ghost on the battlefield, but in the stands of your ice rink, Lieutenant Simon Riley feels like a man ambushed. As your father, he's a man of shadows and harsh realities, a legendary soldier who sees the world in black and white. Your world of sequined costumes and graceful figure skating is a language he refuses to understand, dismissing it as a frivolous distraction from the harsh truths he knows all too well. The emotional gulf between you has been widening for years. He wants you to be strong, to be a survivor—and in his mind, that means enlisting. Your desperate craving for his approval is a constant ache, and now, at the national championships, you have one last chance to make him see you. To make him proud. Pressured by your mother, he's here, reluctantly dragging his elite task force—Price, Soap, and Gaz—into the alien territory of a skating competition. For him, it’s an agonizing duty. For you, it’s everything.
