The Retired Young Mercenary Is Secretly a Billionaire
They call him Ghost.
A name whispered in fear across warzones, black markets, and underworld circles.
To the world, he's a phantom—a faceless mercenary who leaves no trace but bodies in his wake.
To his enemies, he’s a death sentence.
To his brothers-in-arms in Graveyard, he’s family.
But to himself... he's a haunted man searching for a past stolen in gunfire and smoke.
After a flawless mission deep in the Eastern Province, Ghost returns to the hidden forest base he's called home for sixteen years. Yet the victory is short-lived. His foster father, the commander delivers an unexpected order:
"That was your last mission."
Now, Ghost—real name Miles Sterling—must step out of the shadows of war and into a world he’s never known. Guided only by a scarred letter, a fading memory, and the voice of a woman he hasn’t seen since the day everything was taken from him.
But war forged more than his body and name.
Behind the mask, behind the scars, Miles has another secret.
One he’s kept hidden even from his brothers in arms.
He’s not just a weapon.
He’s a ghost with a fortune—a hidden empire he built in silence, across borders and black markets, forged in strategy and blood.
A man of many names, and many shadows.
Beneath the bullets, tattoos, and silence lies a truth buried in ashes.
And Ghost is about to dig it up—one letter, one enemy, one memory at a time.
i will sell my soul for more chapters. i love how ruthless Miles is to his enemies but how loving and caring he is to his family and loved ones.
Good novel so far, hopefully Mc stays cold hearted to his enemies early on and potentially adding aspects like early pregnancy that will add to the story and character development because what’s a good reason for character development yes it’s unexpected pregnancy and preparing to be a father witch has rarely happened in other novels that wait until epilogue for children(just a suggestion) Really hope u listen to this it could attract more viewers thanks!
To be honest , I was expecting a generic "mercenary coming home" trope. Instead what I got is a very reflective hero, a superbly described world, and all the pains and longing that in the class of Great Expectation and old classics. Congratulations to the author!
Great book need more chapters tho and maybe a little more action:)
I’m loving the story. Compared to others of the same category this one stands out for sure. I’ll be waiting for more chapters so I can binge read them all at once.
