About this listen

When the blast killed his wife and son, Air Force Pararescueman Luis Cortez should have died with them.

He didn’t.

Now fighting through brutal recovery and the weight of survivor’s guilt, Luis is drawn into a shadow war stretching from cartel strongholds in Veracruz to Triad syndicates in Shanghai. The same network that destroyed his family is tightening its grip on international finance and blood-soaked trafficking routes.

But Luis isn’t chasing justice. He’s hunting revenge.

With a wounded Combat Controller at his side, a relentless Mexican investigator, and a CIA officer with her own hidden motives, Luis tracks a ruthless alliance of cartel killers and Triad elites. Every step drags him deeper into a conspiracy of money, betrayal, and power—where survival means fighting with nothing left to lose.

Fans of Saul Herzog, Jack Carr, and Mark Greaney will tear through this relentless debut packed with authentic tactics, raw emotion, and a hero who refuses to quit.

Guardian Down launches a new series of international thrillers where every mission comes at the highest cost.
