The Dongfeng Deception

Rumours of a new missile send the UN Security Council into meltdown. A charismatic soldier, a beautiful academic and global Intelligence services scramble to determine the truth. In Washington, reason struggles against machismo while, in Beijing, political cunning is too clever by half, as the world inches toward a deadly conflict. The writer's authority as a former diplomat and political strategist propels his story forward, as he weaves military facts and geopolitical intrigues into his plot, crafting a highly plausible scenario that should put us all on notice. "A gripping page-turner by an exciting writer" BRUCE NICHOLLS...Winner of Newspaper House Annual Literary Award "A cracking good read, narrated by a master storyteller" "Riveting realism and suspense, reflecting contemporary shifts in the global balance of power. This could actually happen!"
