THE WORLD IS ABOUT TO EXPLODE. THIS IS THE STORY OF WHAT HAPPENS BEFORE IT DOES.

‘Heir to Frederick Forsyth… delightfully audacious spy story’ The Times
'Magnificently conceived and brilliantly executed' ANDREW TAYLOR
'Compelling and suspenseful ... kept me gripped throughout' AJAY CHOWDHURY
'Rich, epic ... exactly what a contemporary thriller should be' JEREMY DUNS

An explosive conspiracy is on the verge of detonation.

A Korean man is poisoned in broad-daylight at Kuala Lumpur International Airport.

A Russian intelligence officer is assassinated in a Washington hotel.

And a real-estate mogul has just become the 45th President of the United States.

The world teeters on the brink and three individuals find themselves caught up in the cross hairs:

Jenna, a seasoned CIA officer, whose past missions refuse to stay buried.

Lyosha, a student in Moscow who confronts Vladimir Putin on live TV only to suffer the consequences.

And Eric, a North Korean spy in the heart of the White House who adores the man he is working to undermine: the President.

In a world of shifting allegiances and betrayal, RED STAR DOWN is a global and gripping thriller that explores the intricate web of politics, espionage, and deception during of one of the most turbulent periods in recent history.
