Europe believes it can stand apart from the war in Ukraine. It's wrong. Russian forces threaten Kharkiv once more and fear spreads through the European Union. Quiet decisions are made behind closed doors and the war creeps westward without ever being declared. In Brussels, a senior EU official fights to hold a fragile union together, but an unknown adversary lurks in secret, seeking to fracture their unity. In Ukraine, a medic races to save lives as cities shake under bombardment. And in the shadows, a covert operative leads a team behind enemy lines, seeking to slow Russia's advance. Each strike brings the conflict closer. Each secret makes it harder to stop. Sparks is a gripping geopolitical thriller about how modern wars really start—not with speeches or votes, but with silence, shadows, and the first irreversible act.
