About Dead Man's List: Danny Cortez Series, Book 1 (Unabridged)

He lost his partner, his career, and his name. Now, he's got one chance to set it right. Former DEA intelligence agent Danny Cortez has spent years hiding from the cartel he helped destroy. His life fits in a single duffel bag—burner phones, fake IDs, and a Glock he sleeps beside. But when a note bearing his dead partner's name surfaces, everything Danny's fought to protect unravels. Within hours, news breaks: the cartel kingpin Danny put away has escaped from a maximum-security prison. The same man who swore revenge. The same man who took everything from him. To protect his mother—and to finally learn what happened to his partner—Danny has to step back into the shadows he barely survived the first time. But the deeper he digs, the more he realizes that the betrayal didn't end with the cartel. From the snow-covered peaks of Colorado to the dust-choked deserts of New Mexico, Dead Man's List is a relentless, emotionally charged thriller about guilt, loyalty, and how far one man will go to make things right. Perfect for fans of Jack Reacher, Orphan X, and The Gray Man —but grittier, sharper, and far more personal.
