Shadow Front

By J. Benedict

A covert strike team. A high-value target. A mission deep behind enemy lines.

Luke Ryder thought his war was over-until a black bag offer pulls him into the shadows. Recruited by a private outfit with ties to U.S. intelligence, Ryder leads a team of elite contractors into Russian-occupied Ukraine. Their objective: eliminate a GRU officer orchestrating attacks against NATO allies.

But once the mission begins, nothing goes as planned.

Cut off from support and hunted by Russian forces, Ryder and his team must fight to survive in a brutal landscape of trench warfare, drone strikes, and urban ambushes. Every move is deniable. Every mistake, fatal.

With the clock ticking and the body count rising, Ryder realizes this was never just a hit-it's a battle for the future of the war.

Gritty, explosive, and relentlessly authentic, Shadow Front is the first installment in the Luke Ryder thriller series-perfect for fans of Jack Carr, Brad Taylor, and Mark Greaney.
