He was a ghost. She was the only one who ever looked him in the eye.
Dr. Valentina Reyes has spent three months treating gunshot wounds in the mountains of Guerrero, gathering intelligence no one back home can know she's collecting. She's good at reading rooms, reading wounds, reading people. What she can't read is the man everyone calls El Fantasma, a warlord with no face, no photograph, and no mercy.
Until he takes her.
Not as a prisoner. As something he refuses to name.
Mateo has spent twenty years protecting a girl who doesn't know she's being watched, the same girl who once, at nine years old, saved his life with a single act of instinct she doesn't remember. He built an empire from behind a wall of absence so complete that even his own men have never seen his face. But Valentina sees him, the man underneath the legend, and every wall he's ever built starts coming down.
She came here to find a monster.
She's starting to fall for the man he never let anyone meet.
But somewhere behind her mother's unfinished piece of music lies a secret worth killing for, and the closer Valentina gets to the truth, the more she realizes the war she walked into didn't start with Mateo.
It started with her.
