Menace by Ray Keating

An extraordinary adventure into the darkest halls of power, Menace: An Agent Dean Cold Novel by Ray Keating is a confidently cool piece of Cold War sci-fi, coupled with top-secret action. To stop a clandestine takeover of the Soviet Union by mind-controlling tech, Agent Dean Cold must put aside his grief at the loss of his partner and face down a sinister cabal of Commanders bent on pushing the world towards nuclear war. Joined by a handful of Secret Service vets and a drum-playing chemist, this spy-game group of companions becomes the first and last line of defense against a quiet coup and perplexing technology that could shake the fabric of the future. Bringing his signature style to science fiction, Keating shows he can craft a suspenseful read in any genre, delivering a thrilling piece of sci-fi that artfully blurs the line between historical fact and conspiratorial fiction.
