At sixteen, Jack Carter lost everything—his family, his future, and the illusion that anyone was coming to save him. Left for dead by the same people who butchered his world, he fought back. Alone. Bloody. Unforgiving.
Now, ten years later, Jack is a ghost with a reputation. A scarred veteran turned urban myth—missing an eye, loaded with trauma, and driven by one thing: balance. He doesn’t kill for justice. He kills to make sure the next kid doesn’t end up like him.
Using The Board, a black-market gig economy for criminals, Jack takes contracts no one else will—tracking abusers, traffickers, and predators the system won’t touch. But the deeper he goes, the more he realizes the rot isn’t just in the streets—it’s everywhere. Political. Institutional. Intentional.
As Jack works his way through a criminal ecosystem built on silence and power, he’s not just hunting monsters—he’s becoming one.
Viper is a violent, psychological thriller about what happens when a broken boy becomes a weapon—and decides to aim himself at the world that broke him.
