This is the first book ever written for the defense on how to avoid runaway jury verdicts. I wrote this book because I care about fairness. I believe everyone has the right to a fair trial, not just plaintiff lawyers and their clients.

But Don Riley, head of the CIA’s Emerging Threats Group, is staring at a social media post showing him to be very much alive and on the run in South America. The video of Thomas sparks a global hunt: The Americans want to bring him to justice. The Chinese want him to disappear. And the Russians want to kill him very, very slowly. But the world's most powerful nations aren't the only ones pursuing the most wanted man on the planet.

They trained him to disappear. Now they’ve made it global. Hunter Kade was built for silence—former Recon Marine, black-site operator, the kind of man governments deny exist.

Offshore accounts. Ghost operations. Shadow directives are buried so deep that even Congress doesn’t see them. The system didn’t collapse—it adapted. And now it’s bigger.
