The Paper Ghost

What if the government could erase you — and replace you with someone who never existed?

Inside the NSA, a covert program called ORACLE doesn’t just eliminate threats. It dismantles their identities, wipes them from every database, and slots fabricated people into the positions they leave behind. Judges. FBI deputies. Pentagon officials. The shadow network is embedded at the highest levels of American power — and the people running it have perfected the art of making the truth disappear.

But ORACLE’s architects made a mistake. They turned their own weapon on someone who knows how it works.

The Zero Footprint series follows different people caught in the blast radius of America’s most dangerous intelligence program — an infrastructure denial operative fighting to prove she exists, a diplomat who discovers she may be an unwitting insertion, a journalist chasing evidence that erases itself, a public defender whose clients were convicted by a witness who never existed, and an auditor following a money trail into a machine that has learned to hide inside its own bureaucracy.

Each book is a standalone thriller. Every story shares the same broken world.

For readers of Daniel Silva, Mick Herron, Brad Thor, and the Bourne franchise.
