Provenance Paperback – March 15, 2026

As a senior documentation specialist in artifact provenance and acquisition verification, Sarah Callahan has spent years tracing the hidden histories behind the world’s most valuable artifacts—separating truth from the carefully constructed narratives that move them through collectors, institutions, and private networks. She understands something most people never see.Every system leaves a trace.When Sarah is abruptly taken into the custody of a powerful and secretive private network, the violent past she barely survived four years earlier resurfaces in ways she never expected. The man who nearly killed her has reappeared—this time as a tool in someone else’s strategy.And someone is using him to destabilize the system that now controls her life.At the center of that system is a man known only as Crow—whose network quietly rewrites the histories of priceless artifacts, laundering their provenance so they can move undetected through the world’s most powerful collections. For Crow, control is everything. Systems exist to be built, managed, and protected.Sarah is now part of one of them.Assigned to keep her alive—and to make sure she remains exactly where the network needs her—is Locke, the disciplined security operative responsible for managing Crow’s most sensitive assets. But the longer Sarah remains inside the system, the harder that boundary becomes to maintain.Because someone else is already watching for the moment it breaks.Eric Voss does not attack systems directly.He dismantles them.Patiently. Strategically. From the inside out.And when Voss realizes that Sarah has become the one variable Crow cannot easily replace—and the one leverage point Locke cannot afford to lose—the rules of the game begin to change.Now Sarah must navigate a world built on leverage, secrecy, and power structures designed long before she ever stepped into them.Because the fastest way to destabilize a system isn’t to destroy it.It’s to find the one person everything was built around—and remove them.
