Iron Vows

By Gordon J. MacKenzie

Kael was built to be predictable.

A lone contractor with a flawless record. A problem-solver for hire. A man who followed the rules so closely he disappeared inside them.

Until one extraction goes wrong.

When Kael rescues Mara, a classified witness marked as a "stability asset" by a powerful corporate regime, he exposes something far more dangerous than a broken contract: a market where compliance is enforced through silence, proxy violence, and disposable lives.

Hunted across unmanaged space by bounty contractors and shadow enforcement, Kael is forced into open conflict with Meridian, a system that doesn't forgive unpredictability. As evidence leaks and pressure mounts, survival stops being the goal. Disruption becomes the only option.

Iron Vows is a hard-edged, fast-moving science fiction thriller featuring:

- A disciplined lone-operative protagonist
- Gritty military and tactical realism
- Corporate power as the true antagonist
- High-stakes pursuits across lawless space
- A reluctant alliance forged under fire

Perfect for readers who enjoy Richard K. Morgan, The Expanse, Jack Reacher-style lone heroes, and dark, grounded military sci-fi.

This is Book One of the Iron Vows series.
