Ironfield Publishing | Crime & Thriller

He was trained to kill for his country. Now he kills for whoever pays the price.

This month's Author Spotlight features Norman Sinclair, author of The Mechanic, a gripping crime thriller that explores the dangerous world of contract killing, criminal organizations, and the consequences of a life built on violence.

At the center of the story is a young, disciplined former soldier struggling to find his place in civilian life. His military training has given him extraordinary skills, but few opportunities to use them in an ordinary career.

Then a powerful criminal syndicate recognizes his potential.

He becomes known as The Mechanic, a professional assassin whose assignments follow a simple formula: a name, a target, a payment, and a clean exit.

But the deeper he enters the criminal underworld, the more complicated his life becomes. Loyalty is temporary, betrayal is inevitable, and the people paying him may be more dangerous than his targets.

As the assignments become increasingly perilous, The Mechanic faces a terrifying realization: getting into the business of killing was easy compared to getting out.
