Echo Ridge: The Luma Series, #2 Kindle Edition

Ranger Cody Andersen patrols the Sierra Nevada alone — just him, his dog Scout, and an AI companion named Luma whispering data through his earpiece. It's the life he chose. Solitude is safer than connection. Silence is easier than grief.Because these mountains hold more than granite and pine. They hold his father's memory — the legendary ranger who died on this ridge, leaving behind footprints Cody has spent years trying to fill.When a routine patrol turns deadly, Cody finds himself caught between a desperate mother and child fleeing a storm, a ruthless drug cartel hunting them down, and a mysterious figure the locals call "the ghost of Echo Ridge." As the mountain throws everything it has at him — blizzards, bullets, and the weight of his own past — Cody must decide what kind of man he really is.Not his father's shadow. Not a ghost haunting his own life. But a protector willing to step into the fire.Echo Ridge is a pulse-pounding wilderness thriller about legacy, loss, and discovering that the people who shaped us don't need us to become them — they just need us to find our own true north.
