Wolf Deception

A missing nuclear bomb. A ruthless conspiracy. And a plot that could ignite global war.

Half-buried in the sand, an enormous black casing bears the faded markings of its former owner—USAF. Lost just off the Georgia coast more than sixty years ago, the now-legendary nuclear weapon resurfaces, discovered by two young boys and their scheming father.

But the bomb won’t be returned to the military.
It’s going to The Cause.

Led by former Texas governor Margie Franks, the secret cabal known as The Cause plans to use the weapon to destabilize global markets by targeting critical energy infrastructure. As their plan unfolds, British intelligence intercepts chatter pointing to Oxford University as a hub for a radicalized terror network—led by a legendary extremist known only as The Wolf.

The FBI turns to Special Agent Frank Deal and his elite WMD team. To avoid tipping off the enemy, Deal deploys his most unorthodox asset: four talented American students posing as exchange scholars. When the group uncovers next-generation drone prototypes capable of delivering nuclear payloads across the UK, the threat becomes terrifyingly real.

With time running out, Deal and his allies must unravel a hidden link between The Wolf and a broader conspiracy—one more ambitious than spreading terror alone.

And as they close in, a single question lingers:
Have they been misled by the very mastermind behind The Cause’s endgame?

If you enjoy the global stakes of Brad Thor, the grit of Vince Flynn, and the layered conspiracies of Robert Ludlum, you’ll be hooked by Wolf Deception.
