Levon Cade is not a conventional hero. After years of serving his country in covert special operations, he chose to leave behind the violence, the secrets, and the constant danger that once defined his life. His goal was clear: to put the past behind him and start anew. He found a sense of peace working in construction, earning a living through hard physical labor and surrounding himself with simple, honest people. But that fragile balance is about to be shattered.
Everything changes when his boss’s daughter—a young woman Levon sees as part of his own family—vanishes without a trace. The police seem powerless, and the leads are few and far between. But Levon is not someone who gives up easily. The calm he had searched for over the years is cast aside as he launches a personal mission to find her, no matter the cost.
What begins as a desperate search soon leads him to uncover a human trafficking ring operating with impunity, protected by a web of corruption that stretches from the streets to the highest levels of power. Every step he takes in his investigation pits him against ruthless enemies, but it also rekindles skills he thought were long buried. The dormant beast trained to survive the harshest environments awakens once again.
Levon becomes the man he once was—but this time, the cause is even more personal. The violence returns, but it is now guided by a moral compass that refuses to let injustice go unpunished. In a world where the innocent vanish and the guilty hide behind power, someone has to do what needs to be done.
