Fall From Grace
In 1986, the Cold War produced its deadliest secret.
When a defecting Russian general hands the American ambassador a film proving the existence of Entropek—a weapon capable of tearing matter apart at the molecular level—the balance of global power shatters overnight. A single kilogram can erase ten city blocks and drill six miles into the earth. Five pounds already exist.
President Cameron Archer authorizes a covert operation to steal the stockpiled weapon from deep inside Russia and destroy it on American soil. He sends Tom West, a seasoned operative, into hostile territory with orders that allow no failure—and no witnesses.
But as West races to secure Entropek, a different threat emerges in Washington.
Archer’s carefully buried past is mistakenly uncovered by his own National Security Advisor, Shelly Kirk, triggering a chain reaction of mistrust, ambition, and fatal miscalculation. As secrets collide and loyalties fracture, West and Kirk are driven toward a confrontation neither can escape.
With Entropek in play, one wrong move could annihilate Washington, D.C.—and far more beyond.
FALL FROM GRACE, the explosive prequel to CHIEFS, is a high-stakes political and military thriller about power, secrecy, and the cost of winning the Cold War.
