About this book

Summary

The past doesn’t stay buried: it just waits for the frost to melt. Elias Thorne is a man built on silence and scar tissue. After a career spent in the shadows of the "off-the-books" world, he wants nothing more than the quiet life of a ghost. But when a retired fixer reveals the existence of the Ghost Ledger, Elias realizes that his retirement was just a stay of execution. The ledger contains the names of every asset ever used and every sin ever committed by an agency that doesn't officially exist. Now, from the frozen streets of Chicago to the high-stakes glitz of the St. Regis, Elias is on a collision course with a new breed of specialists who do not leave witnesses.
