Ward has spent years trying to outrun the ghosts of Afghanistan.
But ghosts have a way of finding him.
THE CALL COMES WITHOUT WARNING. Randall is dead.
When Ward reaches his friend’s isolated farmhouse, he finds signs of a struggle, a hidden armory, and a trail of blood that leads nowhere. Then the killers come for him.
Forced back into the darkest corners of his military past, Ward follows a chain of clues that leads all the way to the mountains of Afghanistan. Every step brings him closer to the truth Randall died for—and closer to Tyler Ewart, a mercenary who kills without hesitation and now has Ward in his sights.
As the body count rises, Ward must confront the one day in Koh‑e‑Umid he’s never been able to face. Because the secret buried there didn’t just destroy Randall.
It’s coming for him next.
Some wars never end.
The truth is written in blood.
