The Lone Gladio

More about the book

Assassinations, drug running, and false flag operations reveal a shadowy global network. Greg McPhearson, once a key player in this dark world, has become the hunted. His life changes when he meets Mai, reigniting a flicker of his lost soul. Meanwhile, Special Agent Ryan Marcello, frustrated by a last-minute cancellation of a sting operation ordered by the CIA, begins to investigate. He enlists senior analyst Elsie Simon, an expert on the Turkey-Central Asian-Caucasus nexus, to help track a high-level target linked to a global narcotics-terrorism ring. Each lead draws them closer to home, uncovering a web of danger. The murder of a U.S. mogul's son sets off a chain of events that entangles Ryan and Elsie in a complex scheme of retribution, filled with black ops, kidnappings, and unexplained murders. Their investigation spans from Russia and Azerbaijan to Cambodia and Vietnam, revealing the treacherous depths of the Deep State. In a world turned upside down, the line between friend and foe blurs, leading to a final mission where no one is safe, and the Gladio acts alone.
