The Phantom (Phantom series Book 1)

Crime is out of control, bad things are happening by the minute, and nobody seems to be doing anything about it, that is until a man in black shows up. Yet, a big problem develops for the city of Chicago when a mysterious stranger single handily takes on the bad guys, and these are not just any run of the mill criminals. It’s the Mafia! The mayor is caught in the middle when the self-appointed vigilante eliminates gangsters by the dozens, using unconventional methods. The mystery man soon becomes the people’s hero, but his fame comes with a price. Now considered a common criminal by the authorities, The Phantom must avoid getting caught while carrying out his nightly missions. With the law on one side and the Mafia on the other, there is little room for error. However, the elusive creature somehow manages to avoid either as he continues to clean up the city. Even when they have him in their grasp, the man without a name disappears right before their eyes. Yet, the mayor refuses to allow anyone to become judge, jury, and executioner, so he calls on the FBI for assistance. Immediately, the director of this powerful organization sends his hand-picked new recruit, a beautiful 25 year old that graduated at the top of her class. Agent Brooke Carson’s first assignment: solve the mystery behind the illusive creature and bring him to justice. The only problem, nobody seems to be able to hold onto the ghost and just like his name implies The Phantom slips away in the night!
