His parents were murdered. The truth was buried. And the conspiracy is far greater than he imagined.
At twenty, two, Ethan Cross has already lost everything that matters most. Determined to uncover the truth behind his parents' deaths, he follows a trail of encrypted transactions, missing evidence, and powerful men who have spent years hiding their secrets.
His investigation leads him deep into Mexico's criminal underworld, where rival cartels, corrupt businessmen, and shadowy financial networks are connected by billions of dollars in hidden assets. With the help of Alexandra Vale, a brilliant investigator carrying secrets of her own, Ethan discovers that the men responsible may answer to an organization whose influence reaches far beyond the cartels.
But every discovery comes at a price. Witnesses are threatened, allies are wounded, and the growing danger forces Ethan to confront a difficult truth: vengeance alone will never bring his parents back.
As his relationship with Alexandra changes and new friendships are forged, Ethan begins transforming his inheritance into Cross Shield, a private humanitarian and protective organization built to defend those who cannot defend themselves. At its center stands the Sovereign, a former military vessel destined for a new purpose.
Yet even as Ethan builds something greater than himself, a new trail emerges from the ruins of the criminal empire he helped expose, a trail leading into the international shipping industry and an even darker mystery.
The search for justice has become a fight against an invisible enemy. And Ethan Cross is only beginning to understand how deep the shadows reach.
