"Menace: An Agent Dean Cold Novel" is the Latest Page-Turner from Ray Keating
DAVENPORT, Fla. - Californer -- .Adding to his unique take on thrillers, mysteries and historical fiction, Ray Keating now ventures into science fiction with Menace: An Agent Dean Cold Novel. Keating serves up his classic mix of intense action, deep reflection, compelling characters, unexpected twists and powerful relationships.
What is Menace about? The Cold War is about to take an unexpected turn. It's 1953, and humanity teeters on the edge. But only a handful of people are aware. Attacks on U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower and the Soviet Union's Joseph Stalin threaten to send the world on a journey that no one could have predicted. Eisenhower turns to Secret Service Special Agent Dean Cold to lead a clandestine team. The mission? Unravel a bizarre mystery, and deal with consequences that promise to challenge politics, war, and perhaps the foundations of Western Civilization.
