Ghosts of Mendoza

Joe Pound wasn't looking for trouble, but trouble just crashed into his garage. After years as a soldier and a special operator, Joe left the covert world to rebuild his father's auto shop, searching for purpose and honoring the man who raised him. But his plans for a quiet life come to a crashing halt when a car plows into his garage, carrying a critically injured woman and a cryptic link to his own past.

As Joe digs deeper, he discovers a connection to his long-lost best friend, a man Joe hasn't spoken to in years and who was murdered while uncovering a decades-old conspiracy tied to Argentina's dirty war. Haunted by guilt and driven by a vow to right the wrongs of the past, Joe must face ruthless enemies willing to kill to protect their secrets.

From the gritty streets of Los Angeles to the violent plains of El Salvador and finally to the shadowed barrios of Buenos Aires, Joe must follow a trail of cryptic clues left behind by his old friend to solve a decades-old mystery. To honor the dead and protect the innocent, Joe must decide how far he's willing to go and what he's willing to sacrifice.

Packed with action, mystery, and raw intensity, Ghosts of Mendoza, Joe Pound's first adventure, is a ripping tale of loyalty, redemption, and the fight to bring buried secrets to light.
