From Richard Lyntton, author of North Korea Deception, comes a gripping international thriller inspired in part by real events from the Bosnian War.
London. Paris. Vienna. Split. Sarajevo. The Hague.
As war tears apart the former Yugoslavia, British Army captain and UN Military Observer Jack Steele is sent into the heart of a conflict few outsiders truly understand.
Millions of lives hang in the balance.
Officially, Steele's mission is peacekeeping.
Unofficially, he is walking straight into a deadly conspiracy involving Western intelligence services, political betrayal, and a covert assassination plot that could ignite a catastrophic new European war.
Steele has already survived the First Gulf War as a British tank commander. But Bosnia is different.
Here, allies cannot be trusted. Truth is a weapon. And every faction has blood on its hands.
As Steele searches for the truth behind the mysterious Sarajevo Protocol, he finds himself hunted by forces determined to silence him before he exposes the conspiracy.
Because some secrets are worth killing for.
Inspired by real geopolitical events and the brutal realities of the Bosnian conflict, Hyde Park Deception is a high-stakes espionage thriller of war, deception, betrayal, and impossible choices.
For readers of Robert Ludlum, John le Carré, Frederick Forsyth, Tom Clancy, and Vince Flynn.
