Vast Night - C Lowry

A ruthless corporate syndicate. An encrypted list of bought men. A drifter with nothing left to lose.

In the scorched, unforgiving heart of the Sonoran Desert, a single encrypted drive holds the power to topple a billion-dollar empire-if the private mercenaries hunting it don't bury it first.

John Goode is an ex-military drifter looking for nothing but an empty highway. But when he discovers a corporate whistleblower tortured and left to die in an abandoned solar farm, Goode is dragged into a deadly conspiracy. The dying man entrusts him with a blood-stained biometric drive containing the "ledger"-a digital index of forty-seven corrupt judges, politicians, and water commissioners owned by a ruthless land-development syndicate.

With a massive corporate bounty instantly placed on his head, Goode aligns with Maria, a fiercely driven woman hunting the executives who ordered her father's execution. Together, they must navigate the brutal Arizona badlands, outrun high-tech thermal drones, and survive the relentless pursuit of Isaac Heston, a conflicted executioner commanding a private army of tactical cleaners.

From high-speed dirt bike chases through cartel smuggling routes to a bullet-riddled assault on a neon-lit Phoenix penthouse, Vast Night is a pulse-pounding, modern neo-noir Western where the line between justice and vengeance is measured in cordite and blood. As the syndicate's empire begins to burn, Goode and Maria must decide how much of themselves they are willing to sacrifice to balance the scales.

Perfect for fans of Taylor Sheridan's Sicario, the gritty suspense of Lee Child's Jack Reacher, and high-octane corporate conspiracy thrillers.
