I'm a story teller. I used to tell factual stories, to educate, to market, to advertise, or publicize. Today, I tell fictional stories, mostly to share ideas, concerns, and possible solutions to problems we all face. I'm currently writing a novel that examines global tensions, political and military conflict, economic shifts, and covert military intelligence gathering. My political espionage fiction reflects actual past events and current trends that fuel a plot driven by international intrigue, stealth, duplicity, and in the end human frailty. By the mid-2020's, the East has gained the upper hand and China and Russia have formed a dangerous alliance that threatens the democracies of America and Europe. Meanwhile, U.S. foreign policy flounders under successive American presidents, and the nation's two-party system remains ineffective as Washington reflects America's bitter tribal divide. Caught in the middle of an inevitable global conflict are two strong, resourceful intelligence officers who match wits time and again across four decades. Rachel Meyers graduates from West Point, becomes a DIA officer, and rises in the ranks to become a proven military leader, and eventually a consummate political trailblazer. Rachel's nemesis, is former Soviet military pilot Gavrill Antonovich, who grows to detest the Russian government, and as a GRU agent, and then a double agent for China's MSS, works to damage and undermine any government in his path--including his own. Unbeknownst to either of them, Rachel Meyers and Gavrill Antonovich are on a collision course of historical significance.
