He believed that the concept was too over-the-top and offensive to be of much interest to his usual audience, and so wrote the first book with no intention of publishing it, as a way to get the idea out of his head. However, during interactions with fans, he mentioned the unpublished story and was surprised that the premise was met with enthusiasm. The Paladin of Shadows series contain graphic scenes of rape, bondage, torture, and underage sex, as Ringo's protagonist's anti-terrorism missions butt heads with harsh economic realities of commercial sexual slavery in Eastern Europe and its connection to funding arms for terrorist organizations.

Mike Jenkins, A.K.A. Ghost), is a self-proclaimed sadist, repressed rapist, former United States Navy Boatswain's Mate 1st Class, and a trainer of US Navy SEALs. While walking after a class on the campus of the University of Georgia, he witnesses a woman being kidnapped. He impulsively follows the kidnapper and rescues several abducted women and earns the gratitude of several nations, a small fortune, and a series of high-level political connections in the process of experiencing a life change. The work is, in fact, three connected anti-terrorism novellas spanning about a year, backstory omitted from the last two, where "Jenkins" takes on a certain James Bond–style sole operator/loose cannon role. The work features scenes involving the interception of two nuclear devices, saving Paris and Washington, D.C., while featuring a travelogue through part of the seamier sides of the Balkans and European parts of the former Soviet Union. In the second work, Harmon buys an estate in the eastern Europe country of Georgia that has an entailed ancient warrior tribe, called the Keldara, who bestow on him the honorific "The Kildar" (Warlord, Baron, or similar title). The Keldara aid him in reducing tensions in the Caucasus. Again the book shows a life transition, this time from a sole shooter to a, politically connected local warlord. In subsequent books, the tribe, now being trained up into a superb light company, goes operational and is employed as a deniable black-ops force by the United States for the next several works.
