Project Blackwell

A riveting spy thriller that's part James Bond, part Alex Rider, and all suspense from a hugely talented new author in Makayla Jackson!

Zackary Blackwell was raised to obey.

Trained under his father’s covert agency, SCORPION, he has become the perfect operative—disciplined, detached, and dangerously loyal. His newest mission: infiltrate INTI, a controversial CIA program that openly recruits and trains teenagers to become government spies.

But Zackary’s true objective is far more dangerous. Intercept seven nuclear cases being transferred between international agencies across Russia.

To stop SCORPION’s growing influence, INTI assembles a team of young agents—unaware they’ve already recruited the very threat they’re trying to eliminate.

Then something shifts.

An unseen force awakens within Zackary, something powerful, unpredictable, and entirely beyond his control.

Teammates grow suspicious.

The operation starts to unravel.

Every move he makes feels watched. Control slips. Instincts clash with orders. And the chaos unfolding around him feels far from coincidental. Someone else may already be pulling the strings.

And if Zackary falters—even once—everything fails.
