Shadows of Deception

Five years after a disastrous mission in Prague left her partner dead and her nemesis, Julian Thorne, presumed destroyed, haunted ex-MI6 operative Ava Sharma lives in self-imposed exile. But the past refuses to stay buried. Thorne resurfaces, leading the shadowy organization Scylla and wielding Cynapse – a terrifyingly sophisticated weapon capable of crippling global infrastructure.

Forced back into the world of espionage she fled, Ava discovers the threat is far greater than imagined. Thorne plans to unleash Cynapse during the upcoming G7 Summit in London, aiming to trigger worldwide chaos. As Ava hunts for Thorne, she uncovers a deeper conspiracy: a high-ranking MI6 official, Section Chief Davies, not only buried warnings about Thorne years ago but seems actively complicit in his return.

Hunted by both Scylla’s ruthless agents and compromised elements within her own former agency, Ava is truly alone. Her only ally is Daniel Sterling, a brilliant but reluctant ex-MI6 tech analyst. Together, operating completely off-grid, they must decipher Cynapse's secrets and track Scylla's movements.

Thorne, a master manipulator, further isolates Ava by releasing a public manifesto, painting her as a rogue agent while positioning himself as a necessary catalyst for change. Racing against a rapidly closing deadline, Ava must infiltrate the heavily secured G7 summit location, confront Thorne’s forces, neutralize Cynapse, and expose Davies' treachery before Thorne plunges the world into darkness.

"Shadows of Deception" is a relentless espionage thriller packed with non-stop action, high-tech intrigue, and stunning betrayals, asking how one woman can fight a conspiracy when hunted by everyone she once trusted. Will Ava stop the attack and clear her name, or become the final victim of the shadows?
