Kane Mercer has nothing left to lose. Once a soldier, now a mercenary for hire, his name is whispered in the shadows of the world's deadliest battlegrounds. When the imprisoned crime lord Alejandro Vargas offers him a fortune to rescue his kidnapped daughter, Kane accepts - not for the money, but because death no longer scares him.
But in the murky underworld of cartels, arms dealers, and warlords, nothing is as it seems. Betrayal stalks his every step. Allies turn to enemies. And Vargas's daughter may not be the only hostage in play.
From burning jungles to cartel-run cities, Kane fights a war that cannot be won - against ruthless soldiers, a sadistic rival, and the ghosts of his own past. As bodies fall and bullets fly, one truth becomes clear: survival has a price. And for Kane, the cost may be everything.
