Lucas Baxter was just a kid when his world ended. Orphaned at ten, his parents murdered under mysterious circumstances, he learned early that life was cruel and that survival was everything. By sixteen, he was in the Army; by nineteen, the SAS had taken him under their wing. Lucas became their deadliest sniper, a perfect shot in a world of chaos.
But one mission changed everything. Captured and declared KIA, the world moved on while Lucas was turned into something else entirely: a weapon. A ghost. An assassin engineered to kill with precision and vanish without a trace. Now, every intelligence agency fears him. He is the world's deadliest sniper. The only name they have. ACE.
Until he crosses paths with Natasha Romanoff. The Red Room trained her, the Avengers saved her, but can she save him? Between missions, secrets, and shadows, Lucas finds himself drawn to the one person who might remind him that he's still human.
Will Natasha see the man behind the weapon, or only the monster he's been made to be? Can Lucas ever reclaim his life or is he destined to remain a ghost forever?
