PHANTOM RUN: BLACK DAWN

A heart-pounding military thriller of stealth technology, Soviet secrets, and an impossible mission in the deadliest skies on earth.

Under the cover of monsoon darkness, deep in the jungles of North Vietnam, a secret Soviet–Vietnamese weapons program is preparing something catastrophic — a next-generation missile system capable of rewriting the balance of power overnight. Hidden in a fortified mountain hangar and protected by elite NVA units, the weapon is hours from deployment. If it launches, millions could die. If the world discovers it, a global war could ignite.

The only thing standing in its way is a single aircraft that officially doesn’t exist.

Captain William “Will” Harris, once one of America’s best pilots, has been grounded by the guilt of a mission gone wrong — a disaster that left good men dead and Harris certain he’d never fly again. But when U.S. intelligence intercepts proof of the Soviet super-weapon, Harris is pulled back into the shadows and handed the controls of The Ghost: a matte-black, heavily modified F-4 Phantom designed for one purpose — flying into airspace no pilot should survive.

This is not a mission. It’s a suicide note written in classified ink.

Assigned as his navigator is Major John Monroe, a brilliant but battle-scarred airman whose loyalty is tested by old wounds and new dangers. Overseeing the operation is Dr. Abigail Lang, the razor-sharp engineer who helped design The Ghost — and the woman Harris once loved and lost in the fallout of a betrayal neither of them has fully escaped.

Together, they face a fortress of Soviet technicians, North Vietnamese guards, and a missile system buried beneath layers of jungle, steel, and deception. Every mile brings them closer to the truth, and to the edge of their own breaking points.

But the enemy has seen them coming.

The sky is alive with tracer fire. Radar nets tighten like a noose. Jammers tear apart their instruments. In a mountain bunker, Soviet engineers prepare the missile for launch as floodlights carve the jungle into blinding white corridors of death.

When The Ghost dives into the storm-lit canyon toward the target, Harris and Monroe must fight not just the enemy but the aircraft itself — buckling, burning, and ripping apart as anti-aircraft fire tears into its armor. Every move is manual. Every second is borrowed. Every heartbeat is one step closer to disaster.

And even if they destroy the weapon, survival is not guaranteed.

Crashed behind enemy lines, hunted through the jungle, and cut off from all support, Harris and Monroe must rely on their wits, training, and each other as the enemy closes in. Meanwhile, Abigail races against time from half a world away, risking her career — and her life — to pull the men she cares about out of a warzone no one was meant to escape.

Explosive, emotional, and relentlessly suspenseful, Phantom Run: Black Dawn delivers military action, deep intrigue, and unforgettable characters.

A cutting-edge stealth aircraft. Soviet and Vietnamese forces racing to outmaneuver U.S. intelligence. A nail-biting final battle. A world of black-budget secrets and Cold War deception. A story of guilt, sacrifice, and the human cost of war.

Perfect for fans of Mark Greaney, Dale Brown, Don Bentley, Larry Bond, and Tom Clancy, this novel blends military authenticity with heart-pounding suspense and powerful emotional stakes.

The weapon is fueling. The sky is burning. The Ghost is airborne.

One wrong move will ignite a war that changes history. One perfect shot will stop it.

Only one team can make it to dawn.
