Once upon a time Nicholas Wolfe was a man with his whole life ahead of him. He enjoyed his work, his friends and had a new love. All of that changed when the boat he was on exploded and the world believed him dead.

In reality, Nick was hurt, captured by the enemy and tortured until his escape to become the dark avenger called Diablo. A mysterious shadow that seeks justice for the innocent and revenge on those who wronged him and he was close to achieving this until his past finally catches up to him.

When Macon Reed and Casey White, his former friend and the woman he once loved, return to France with their team in search of a mystery assassin, they have no idea what they are really up against until the night when Diablo is forced to make a choice that will either save him or doom them all. As he must choose between completing his final quest or saving the life of the young woman he had once loved...not only from the real villains but also from himself.

Will Diablo's path of destruction take him against his friends of will he find a way to come back to the light?



Excerpt

CHAPTER ONE

Diablo meant ‘Devil’ in Spanish but in Nice, the name was used to strike fear into those who would hurt or oppress,
The Corsican drug syndicate and their hired thugs in the police and military were just a few who cringed at the name. While people on the street spoke of him in praise.
He found it ironic to be thought of so highly by people, but then all his recent life was ironic. Especially at times like this when he could think hard and remember what it was like, what he was like, before he came to be a dark myth. To be spoken of only in whispers.
On this night, the Devil found himself perched in a hidden alcove above a dimly lit street. Watching the head of a special team of U.N. investigators that had been sent to find him. A team that was getting closer than he liked to the heart of a very dim circle that would ruin everything he’d worked for.
He’d know when the team known worldwide as The Ravens arrived that things would have to be handled carefully. He knew the best way to do that would be to watch the pretty blond haired young woman to ensure his secrets stayed hidden.
The lightning flashed across the black sky, illuminating his place of hiding and showing the white cross-shaped scar over his left eye before going dark again.
It was this scar among many that Diablo cursed as he ran a gloved hand over his deeply tanned olive skinned face tiredly, watching his objective leave the library in a hurry. He knew it was time to do what he’d been dreading as he touched the silenced pistol in his belt.

“Tonight, Casey White, you die.” He whispered regretfully. Silently jumping to the ground, he moved to catch up with the woman and finish what had to be done.
Unaware of the impending danger, top international agent and daughter to the President of White-Hartley Enterprises, a well known international corporation, Casey Lee White was swearing rapidly as she crossed the rain slicked street. Oblivious to everything but the information she’d just found.
Things that just didn’t match the official version that they’d been given.
Born to British business magnate Tyrell White, only daughter Casey only worked in the official business as a cover when in the field working for the secret United Nations Task Force against international terrorism or with the group of men her father employed. Like now.
“Mac was right.” She decided to herself, her soft voice carrying the British lilt she was born with.
Digging for both her car keys and cellular phone, she felt the darts strike her in rapid order. “What the bloody hell?”
Casey dropped all she was holding to reach for her neck just as a car with bright headlights screeched around the corner and came right for her.
Whatever the British anti-terrorist might have done was cancelled by the fast acting drug, an arm suddenly snagged her waist to pull her out of the way and the last thing Casey heard was the tires screaming, a few gunshots and a streetlight before unconsciousness claimed her with a haunting voice in her ears.
“Welcome back to Nice, boss.”
