The Forgettable Man

By Lorenzo Bayless Clayton

Danny Malone has built a career on being overlooked.

A private investigator in a near-future Los Angeles, he follows cheating spouses, photographs secrets, and delivers the truth without becoming part of anyone else's story. His forgettable face, unremarkable car, and talent for disappearing have always been his greatest assets.

Until a routine surveillance job turns him into the prime suspect in a murder.

Hired by the elegant and enigmatic Elena Reyes to follow her husband, Danny soon discovers the assignment has nothing to do with infidelity. David Reyes is entangled in a covert war between powerful technology companies, and someone else is watching every move Danny makes.

Then bodies begin to fall.

With manipulated evidence pointing directly at him, Danny is forced to resurrect the skills and contacts he abandoned years ago. His search for the truth leads to a revolutionary surveillance system capable of predicting human behavior-and to Marcus Kade, a ruthless security magnate who knows exactly how dangerous a forgettable man can become.

Hunted by the police, tracked by corporate operatives, and betrayed by the woman who hired him, Danny must expose the conspiracy before his identity, his freedom, and everyone he still cares about are erased.

The Forgettable Man is a tense near-future noir thriller about surveillance, artificial intelligence, buried loyalties, and one ordinary-looking man who was never meant to survive the story built around him.
