From Richard Lyntton, Amazon #1 international bestselling author of The Deception Series, comes a riveting international thriller featuring British tank commander, trained killer, Jack Steele.

As the Berlin Wall falls and the Cold War appears to be ending, the world dares to hope for peace.

Leningrad. Stockholm. London. Venice. Capri.

But in the shadows, others are determined to make sure peace never comes.

British journalist and former tank commander Jack Steele is drawn into a deadly conspiracy stretching across Europe—where a secret Vatican-inspired plot to assassinate a world leader threatens to ignite global chaos.

Only Steele stands between the assassins and catastrophe.

But the deeper he digs, the more he realizes the conspiracy reaches far beyond a single murder plot.

Because one powerful KGB hardliner refuses to accept Soviet defeat.

And he will do anything—kill anyone—to ensure the Cold War never ends.

Inspired in part by the extraordinary true story of President Ronald Reagan's secret "Deception Committee" and the covert strategy behind the West's Cold War victory, Leningrad Deception is a high-stakes international espionage thriller of betrayal, geopolitics, and deadly deception.

For readers of John le Carré, Frederick Forsyth, Daniel Silva, and Tom Clancy.
