He doesn't exist. But he's the only one who can save her.
Brill Wingfield is a ghost. A deniable asset. A predator who hunts the monsters hiding in plain sight.
When the White House Chief of Staff's daughter is kidnapped during Spring Break in Miami, the official response is paralyzed by politics. With the clock ticking and the FBI benched, there's only one man to call.
A three-AM phone call plunges Brill into a shadow world he knows all too well. His mission is simple: find the girl. But the trail, starting with a slick club promoter named Rico and a stolen van, leads to something far darker than a simple kidnapping.
From the sun-drenched beaches of Miami to the sterile boardrooms of Washington D.C., Brill follows a trail of blood, money, and corruption. He discovers this isn't a random snatch-and-grab-it's a transaction. The girl was selected, hunted, and sold to the highest bidder by a sophisticated international trafficking ring.
Now, the rescue mission has become a war.
Outmanned, outgunned, and officially non-existent, Brill must dismantle the entire network, from the brutal street-level muscle to the untouchable, elite suppliers in the nation's capital. The system wants to build a case. Brill wants to fill a graveyard.
In a race against time before the trail goes cold, Brill becomes the hunter, executing his own brutal brand of justice. Because when the powerful trade in human lives, the only currency that matters is fear. And the only answer is Direct Action.
Fans of Lee Child's Jack Reacher, Mark Greaney's Gray Man, and the relentless pacing of a Daniel Silva novel will tear through this explosive, non-stop thriller. Direct Action is a gripping story of revenge, conspiracy, and one man's war against a system that protects its own.
