Books like Vanishing Games by Roger Hobbs
During a dawn raid on the South China Sea, three seasoned pirates attack a smuggling yacht to seize a bag of uncut sapphires. An unexpected hoard turns the mission into a deadly scramble: two pirates are killed, and the lone survivor, a cold‑blooded thief, grabs both the sapphires and the mysterious bonus. Angela, the pirate’s boss, threatens to bring him down and enlists her former protege, a nameless operative called Ghostman. Renamed Jack or simply Ghostman, he can make anything—including himself—disappear. Determined to protect Angela and uncover whether she is still alive, he leaps onto a plane and joins her in Macau’s neon‑lit slums. Together they confront local crime lords, a relentless hit‑man, and a sprawling conspiracy that could change their lives forever.
