The fifth thriller following Iraq war veteran Peter Ash – if he can catch a dangerous assassin, Peter's own record will be wiped clean...

In the sixth white-knuckle thriller from bestselling author Nick Petrie, Peter Ash hunts an assassin – if he succeeds in catching him, Peter's own record will be wiped clean...

With two governments out to get him, ex-soldier Peter Ash has no choice but to keep a low profile and stay out of trouble. This quiet existence in Milwaukee is far from the action-packed life he is used to, but perhaps that's no bad thing.

But then he spots a suspicious armed man walking into a busy market, and he can't stand by and do nothing. He manages to prevent a tragedy, but the gunman escapes and his intended victim vanishes into the crowd. Then a powerful associate from Peter's past appears and makes him an irresistible offer: if Peter can get to the bottom of what happened that day, his record will be scrubbed clean.

This is Peter's only path to a life free from the threat of prosecution or prison. Now, he'll have to fight harder than ever before to ensure that freedom doesn't come at too high a cost...
