Guardian Down: A Luis Cortez Thriller (The Luis Cortez Series Book 1)

Guardian DownAn International Espionage Thriller

For twenty years, Pararescueman Luis Cortez lived by the motto That Others May Live. Now retired in Texas, he wants nothing more than to live quietly with his wife and son.

A bomb meant for him kills them both.

Luis Cortez survives the blast.

Survival is not mercy. It is a sentence.

Hunting down those responsible exposes a conspiracy far larger than a single attack. The technology his father created to help paralyzed veterans walk is now stolen and weaponized by a ruthless global syndicate.

To stop them, Luis rebuilds himself and returns to the fight, leading a small team of operators and agents on the hunt from the cartel strongholds of Veracruz to the financial centers of Switzerland. Driven by grief and a rage that strains his faith, he must decide how much of his humanity he is willing to surrender to destroy an enemy that has none.

Guardian Down is a hard-edged thriller at the intersection of modern warfare, emerging technology, and personal reckoning.

Justice isn’t clean.

Revenge isn’t simple.

And the mission doesn’t care who he becomes to finish it.

Broken bodies. Broken minds. Unbroken mission.
