Reed Montgomery

Reed Montgomery would give anything to stop killing. A series of bad choices have led him into a life as an indentured assassin, where his bosses call the shots and he takes them-or else. Only the promise of eventual emancipation keeps him going, but in the criminal underworld, nothing is cheap. With one last kill standing between himself and freedom, Reed becomes involved with Banks, a young singer in the city. There's only one thing more dangerous than a man with nothing to lose . . . a man with everything to lose. Reed Montgomery is the criminal underworld's best killer. They pick the target. He picks the method. Then the job gets done-always. Until he meets Banks, a beautiful singer from a local bar, and the goddaughter of his next target. Suddenly, nothing is simple. Completing the kill will cost him everything with her, but Reed's bosses aren't interested in love, and they don't tolerate failure. The ultimatum is simple: Execute the target, or you become the target. Reed is thinking of a third option. An option where they wish they'd never been born. They should have let him walk while they had the chance.

When the hunter becomes the hunted, all bets are off. After defying his bosses to protect an innocent woman, elite assassin Reed Montgomery, has ignited a war with the criminal underworld. His enemies will stop at nothing to destroy him, along with anyone he ever cared for. There is only one way out: Reed must carry the war to the enemy and make a last-ditch effort to break free of their world. But as Reed closes in on his target, a new killer steps out of the shadows. He's ruthless, and he's here to hunt. He's here to make sure Reed never walks away.

When they push too far, all you can do is unleash hell. Elite assassin Reed Montgomery's private feud with a former employer has spun completely out of control, and it's cost him almost everything. After the woman he loves vanishes, one of his oldest friends is brutally murdered, and the criminal underworld is unleashed against him, Reed is left with only one option-embrace the carnage. He'll begin with the mercenaries responsible for his friend's murder, and then he'll follow the chain right to the top . . . No matter where it leads. No matter what it costs. This is war.

When killers hide in the shadows, it's time to set the world on fire. After declaring war on the criminal underworld, elite assassin Reed Montgomery uncovered a crippling secret: the organization he's fighting was founded by his father, and Reed must confront him if he has any hope of defeating it. Reaching David Montgomery is easier said than done, however. While in prison for manslaughter, insanity has taken hold, and now David doesn't remember his own son. Armed with a list of his father's known associates, Reed will drive out the truth by any means necessary. But some men will give anything to protect their secrets, and they are every bit as ruthless as Reed. This war isn't over. It's only just begun.

When bloodshed is the game, body count is the score. Elite assassin Reed Montgomery's private war with the criminal underworld is spilling across the country and leaving carnage in its wake. After identifying his enemy as a shadowy shot caller known only as Gambit, Reed is ready to end the war with a well-placed bullet. But Gambit is one step ahead. After kidnapping Reed's father, Gambit proposes an exchange: He'll release David Montgomery if Reed completes one last kill. The target? An innocent public servant. With his father's life hanging in the balance, Reed must outmaneuver Gambit if he ever hopes to end this war. But Gambit is a master of manipulation, and he lives for the game. The path to victory will drag Reed through a darker world than ever before.

When brute force isn't enough, desperate men make desperate choices. Elite assassin Reed Montgomery has set his sights on his greatest enemy-the sadistic criminal mastermind, Aiden Phillips. Surrounded by a team of vigilantes as ruthless and determined as himself, Reed only needs to know where to strike. An orchestrated encounter with a shadowy informant gives Reed the information he needs: The secrets to bringing Aiden down lie in rural Colombia, where the heart of Aiden's operation beats in secret. Reed is ready and willing to carry his war across international borders, but the jungles of Colombia are a dark and violent place, and Aiden will unleash hell to protect his empire. As everything spins out of control, Reed refuses to take his foot off the gas. He'll destroy Aiden...or die trying.

Sometimes falling on your sword is the only option. Armed with critical intelligence and surrounded by a team of ruthless operators, elite assassin Reed Montgomery is ready to deliver a death blow against the criminal empire that destroyed his family. His greatest enemy, Aiden Phillips, leads that empire, and Reed is ready to rip him down. But Aiden didn't come this far or rise this high just to go down without a fight. He'll shelter behind an army of killers, using humans as shields while targeting Reed's closest allies and friends. Because Aiden believes every man has his price, and he knows what Reed treasures most. The last battle of this bloody war may cost Reed everything.
