Threads of Deception (subtitle "Webs of Truth") (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780578348049)

Gregor is a German spy at the end of his life's journey. Before he can pass comfortably however, he must make peace with his conscience. In his struggle with the initial stages of Alzheimer's he must face ghosts he had long thought dead and buried. The moral dilemmas a military man turned spy, were haunting him and dancing through his mind more vividly than ever before due to his oncoming illness. Gregor had been put in the United States as Hitler's last act of defiance toward the Allied Commanders. He is struggling with the moral compromises his mission is demanding from him and has reached the conclusion he will "bow out" and return his childhood home. In the process he must decide whether he will leave the network he had spent the better part of his life building intact or undermine it as he makes his exit. This decision would be easy if he did not despise what he had done as Hitler's pawn. He must decide if he will continue to strengthen and support an ideology he no longer believes in or if in the end he will sabotage what he views as his insidious act.

Steve is the retired commander of an elite Navy Seal team who is searching for his niche in life after leaving the service. He and his former team members find themselves caught in the middle of an arch villain's moral dilemma. They struggle to unravel Gregor's twisted web before it kills one of their own. Along the way he and his friends grow closer together and find romance and lifelong companionship as they are sucked into the deceitful web that spans the entire globe.
