He walks into trouble. He doesn’t walk away.

Former covert operative Caleb Ryan was the government’s ghost. He's a precision weapon pointed at problems that didn’t officially exist. Then a mission went sideways, his team died dirty, and someone high up buried the truth along with their bodies.

Now Caleb drifts from town to town, taking the kinds of jobs no one else missing people the cops gave up on, “accidents” that don’t add up, good folks crushed under the boots of men with money, muscle, and connections. He travels light. Thinks fast. Hits hard. And he has a private list of names—men tied to that burned operation who think they’re safe.

They’re not.

Each town holds a new a vanished teenager in oil country, a church hiding a killer, a border town ruled by a cartel-backed sheriff, a tech firm erasing witnesses. Caleb follows the blood trail, pulling one thread after another, exposing monsters in expensive suits and small-town kings who believe they’re untouchable.

But woven through every case is the same ghost emblem, the same coded phrase, the same reminder that what happened to his team wasn’t a mistake.

It was a message.

They tried to erase Caleb Ryan.

Now he’s coming for whoever signed the order.

One town at a time. One body at a time. Until the last name on his list is crossed out.


A pulse-pounding thriller packed with lethal twists, explosive action, and one man who’ll stop at nothing to complete the mission. Perfect for fans of Lee Child, Vince Flynn, Mark Dawson and Brad Thor.
