Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The lights went out a year ago. No grid. No phones. No law but the gun in your hand.Lyle Gordon survived two wars overseas and came home wanting one thing: to be left alone on sixty acres of Texas dirt with his sixteen-year-old daughter. When armed riders come asking him to fight for a free settlement against the kingdom rising in the ruins of Austin, he turns them away. He has done his killing. He wants peace.Peace does not want him.The Watchers come at dawn while Lyle is away. They kill two men before they take his daughter, and they drag her a hundred miles east into a kingdom of the numbed, where two warlords rule a drugged and broken city through endless oblivion and blood sport in the arena. Lyle takes up the rifle one last time and walks into hell to bring her home.But this is not a story about violence being clean.What follows is a war that costs Lyle everything, piece by piece. A ridgeline that must be held against impossible numbers. A stampede that turns a plain into a threshing floor. A grieving king who will tear apart his own most loyal men to satisfy his hatred. And a moment, late and terrible, when Lyle crosses a line so far that even his own daughter cannot look at him, and learns the oldest truth of the blade: that the sword cuts the hand that holds it.For readers who love lean, hard-hitting survival fiction with real moral weight, THE GHOST SOLDIER delivers relentless action and characters worth bleeding for. A daughter who refuses to break. A stuttering boy who becomes a man. A preacher who blesses a war he hates. A nurse who demands a broken man heal.This is a book for grown readers. It is brutal because its subject is brutal, and it never flinches.But underneath the gunfire, it asks one question: what is liberty actually worth when it costs you your home, your family, everything you have built with your hands And it dares to believe a good man can pick up the sword, walk through fire for the people he loves, and finally, finally lay it down.Turn the page.
