The Beauty of Life series revolves around Dan Broderick, a sniper who possesses an ingrained need to protect the innocent and constantly puts others’ welfare above his own. After a friendly fire incident, Dan’s heart and soul are ripped to shreds.
Drowning in grief, he leaves JTF2 Special Forces and struggles to cope with the guilt of killing his best friend. Dan returns to Canada, hoping to make a difference as a member of Toronto’s Tactical Response Force and to find the beauty of life again.
As he endeavors to transition from elite soldier to urban constable and reconstruct the scattered fragments of his soul, Dan must navigate complex relationships with his new teammates and confront his haunting past, which includes a tangled web of secrets, longstanding misunderstandings, deceit, and unknown enemies bent on revenge.
