Ghostline Publishers LLC
Our Mandate
Not a vanity press.
A selective publishing house.
"We dont sell

We Publish Books"
Ghostline is built around one simple principle: Quality over quantity. We partner with a limited number of authors each year and invest in the work beyond the manuscript.
From editorial development and design to positioning, marketing, and long- term career building. We are here to publish what belongs, not everything that is written.

Featured Books
Crime Thriller
ZERO SUM
Blake Crutchfield
Some games have no winners. Only survivors.
When social media influencer Terah Dickerson realizes the modeling agency she works for has been quietly bought and gutted by a ring of narco-traffickers, arms smugglers, and human traffickers, her glamorous life curdles into a nightmare. Girls she once posed alongside are turning up dead. Investigations vanish. And the man who assaulted her, a smiling narco-terrorist with government-grade firepower, is still watching.
​
Welcome to the DragenDefense World. You survived the game. This is just the beginning.
Pschological Thriller
Lineage of Lies
R.N. Leen
Power is inherited. Corruption is learned. And someone has decided the bloodline ends here.
Investigative journalist Maya Reed knows what happens when you dig too deeply. Her career has already paid the price once. With an eight-year-old son to protect and bills piling up, she should be grateful for the safe assignments now landing on her desk.
Then the heirs of powerful families begin dying.
A politician's daughter.
The grandson of a business dynasty.
Young successors born into wealth, influence, and carefully protected family names.
The deaths look unrelated—accidents, private tragedies, unfortunate coincidences. But Maya sees a pattern others have missed.
Someone is hunting the descendants of families built on corruption, bribery, exploitation, and secrets powerful people thought they had buried.
As Maya follows the trail, she crosses paths with Thomas Wade, the charismatic owner of a technology empire. Intelligent, charming, and seemingly eager to help, Thomas becomes something Maya never expected while chasing a killer:
Someone she trusts.
Someone she wants.
And someone who may know far more about the deaths than he should.

Leen’s Lineage of Lies plunges into a world where political influence is inherited, scandals disappear, and the children of powerful families grow up believing consequences are for other people.

Sébastien Laurent - What the Rain Can’t Wash Away
​Crime Thriller / Police Corruption / Psychological Suspense
Seattle has a way of washing everything clean.
Almost everything.
Detective Lisa Monroe notices something no one else has bothered to question: two supposedly unrelated overdose deaths with toxicology reports that are almost impossibly similar. Same medical examiner. Same rapid conclusions. Same convenient explanations. What begins as a discrepancy buried in an old case file slowly reveals the outline of something far more deliberate.
Christopher S. Baldwin - Deceptions
Espionage / International Thriller / Agent Jack Slade
Slade is a covert operative accustomed to new faces, new identities, and assignments where nothing is quite what it appears. When his pursuit of a Russian oligarch intersects with intelligence operations and competing agendas, aliases become weapons and trust becomes dangerous. Slade soon receives another identity—and another passport—without even being told what his next assignment is.
