Black Skies

Some missions never happened. Some pilots never existed. But the ghosts still fly.

In the dead of night over Central America, a black-budget stealth fighter knifes through storm-torn skies, hunted by Soviet-made radar, Sandinista missiles, and enemies who officially do not exist. They call it the Ghost Viper—a bleeding-edge prototype built to disappear from every screen on earth. But for Jake Lancer and the handpicked few who fly her, invisibility comes with a brutal price.

After a mission over Nicaragua goes catastrophically wrong, Jake and his squadron at the secretive desert base known only as Dreamland are thrown into a deadly escalation. A new mobile fusion radar is being deployed into the jungle—a system capable of burning through their stealth and turning the Ghost Vipers into easy kills. If it comes online, America’s most classified weapon becomes a coffin with wings.

Ordered to shut the system down before it ever broadcasts, Jake and his crew—gravel-voiced commander Dutch, haunted crew chief T-Bone, and razor-sharp intel specialist Echo—are thrust into a series of black operations that blur the line between duty and suicide. Low-level runs through lightning-wracked canyons, knife-edge dogfights with Soviet-trained MiG pilots, and covert strikes on jungle convoys push the Ghost Vipers and their pilots beyond anything they were built to survive.

As the body count rises and the walls close in, Jake begins to suspect that the real enemy isn’t just the Sandinistas or their Soviet backers. In the shadows behind Dreamland’s blast doors, agendas collide: intelligence assets with their own secrets, commanders willing to trade lives for data, and a classified program that may be worth more to Washington as a martyr than a success. Every sortie peels back another layer of betrayal—and every time Jake launches into the night, he knows it could be the last time he ever sees a runway.

With fuel running dry, enemies tracking from every direction, and the fusion radar rolling toward sanctuary, Jake must decide what he is willing to sacrifice: his squadron, his country’s secrets, or the truth about the weapon he flies. In a world where borders are just lines in the rain and deniability is worth more than any pilot’s life, there are no clean exits—only the thin hope of coming home in one piece.
