The Vienna Deception

The last ruling Tsar of Russia, a car bombing in London thirty years ago, and an assault in Queens today—all are linked by a secret with global ramifications. Seymour Hodgkins has been a company man for decades, running the Office of Russian and European Analysis in the Directorate of Intelligence for the CIA. He eats, sleeps, and breathes intelligence on Russia, viewing himself as the final barrier to the resumption of the Cold War. Rebecca Miller is a professor of Russian History focused on achieving tenure. Just a little more sacrifice to the academic gods, and she can finally start truly living. FBI Agent Jack Callaghan is a dedicated agent on leave, determined to spend his father's remaining days by his side. All three are caught in a race against time to uncover a deadly secret that harkens back to the days when the Tsars ruled Russia. Seymour, Becca, and Jack must outwit both Russian and American teams with cross-purposes, all of them deadly. They say the truth will set you free, but in The Vienna Deception, nothing could be farther from the truth. In fact, in this case, the truth may awaken a global behemoth.
