June 1968: A routine patrol in the Gulf of Tonkin turns into a deadly ambush when Soviet missile boats unleash an unprovoked attack on a U.S. warship. CIA agent and former Green Beret Jack Reynolds is dispatched to Saigon, only to discover a mole within his own ranks and a plot to ignite global war. With each chapter—from midnight interrogations on a jungle island to a lightning-fast raid on a nuclear convoy—Reynolds must navigate shifting alliances, unravel KGB conspiracies, and stop a tactical nuclear strike that could erase the fragile balance of power. The Soviet Flame is a high-voltage military thriller of espionage, betrayal, and the race to prevent a superpower showdown.
