Sinopsis

His business card reads security specialist, but Julian Mercer can do just about anything...

While visiting Chicago, Julian stumbles upon the scene of a botched assassination. A man is bleeding out in an alleyway while his fiancee screams for help. Jumping into action, Mercer searches for the shooter. But he's too late. The attacker has disappeared. This wasn't a mugging. It was a hit. And since the first attempt failed, the shooter will try again.

Julian vows to protect the couple. After all, security is his job. But the woman doesn't want a bodyguard. She wants Julian to find and kill the person responsible for nearly murdering her fiancé. Julian understands the burning desire for revenge all too well. And since he never got justice for his own wife's murder, he won't let anyone else suffer the same fate.

Violence and mayhem decimate the city as Julian and his team race to stop the killer. Until they remove the threat, lives hang in the balance. With limited options, Julian may have to sacrifice himself or what little is left of his soul in order to keep his promise. Just how far will the security specialist go to make the city safe again?

Julian Mercer – his business card reads K & R specialist, but there isn’t much that the former Special Air Service commander won’t do. Ever since his forced retirement, Mercer and his team have been working extensively to negotiate the safe return of kidnapping victims, but that isn’t enough to satisfy Julian’s darker desires. His own life-altering tragedy has left him on the brink of insanity and violence, and only his team and his job can keep him from falling over the edge. But this latest mission could be a game-changer. Stumbling upon the scene of a botched assassination, Mercer offers to protect Katia Rhoade, a newspaper heiress, from the unidentified killer. But Katia wants more than a bodyguard, she wants a mercenary who will hunt down and kill the animal responsible for nearly murdering her fiancé. Crime, corruption, and dishonesty are commonplace among the rich and powerful, and Mercer has difficulty trusting the police and the Rhoades. But the former SAS is a man of his word. Violence and mayhem sweep through the city as Mercer and his team race against the clock to stop a contract killer and identify the puppet master. But the hired gun is just a symptom of the underlying disease, and until the man pulling the strings is stopped, a life hangs in the balance. In order to keep his promise, Mercer may have to abandon his morality or lose his life to stop the man responsible.
