At times haunting and simultaneously action packed, this story is a fun weekend read that delivers on its conspiracy meets the Cthulhu mythos story premise.

While the tangled web of plots including the one that sets the story into action don't all get resolved cleanly and the shifting character POVs can get a little disorienting at times, this is a fun read and a solid introduction into the overarching story of the Delta Green TTRPG.

Fun if you already know the major players involved. If I had not known who Joe Camp or Adolph Lepus were, I would have been playing catch-up the whole book. Still, I love this setting and would love to see more, more, more of it!
