Pax West was only four years old when he nearly killed another child. Extensive physical and behavioral testing revealed a unique genetic anomaly that might
explain his extreme responses to external threats. Specifically, his ventromedial prefrontal
cortex – the part of the brain that governs emotions, morals, and ethics – was missing.
Neurologists had never encountered such a condition. Most believed he wouldn’t survive
to adulthood. Some even suggested he should be locked up – or euthanized while there
was still time.
But Dr. Alan Kepler, a leading neurologist working with the U.S. Defense Advanced
Research Projects Agency, had a different idea.
If Pax West could be tamed, he would become the perfect weapon – the very tip of the
spear the CIA used to keep America safe. Could he be taught to override his impulses and
develop an unwavering sense of duty to his country?
By eighteen, Pax became a Navy SEAL. By twenty-four, he was recruited by a clandestine
arm of the CIA to become a Ghost – a man who didn’t exist. His honor and duty to his
country were now hardwired into his very being. He lived to serve, finding purpose in his
new moral compass: doing whatever it took to protect his country.
But what happens when a mission goes wrong, and Pax discovers that the very man he’s
been taking orders from for years has betrayed the nation he’s sworn to protect?
Pax must do what he’s always done: find and neutralize the threat. But what if saving this
enemy’s life is the only way to prevent World War III from erupting?
