Can you provide a link to your book's page on Amazon, or on the publisher or author website, or in a public library catalog, so we can verify the ISBN and other information? Or if you have the book in hand, a photo of the front and back cover and title page would work, as long as it shows the ISBN.

* Description: Matt Scales thought he left the covert world behind. But when a high-risk mission to capture a Russian war criminal goes sideways, one teammate is dead, the target has vanished, and Scales is caught in the fallout.
As whispers of a silent alliance between China and Russia grow louder, Scales is thrust into a high-stakes conspiracy fueled by digital sabotage and asymmetric warfare. From the shadows of Eastern Europe to threats buried deep in America’s infrastructure, the battle lines aren’t drawn on maps—they’re hidden in code, policy, and betrayal.
Bear in the Dragon’s Shadow is a relentless geopolitical thriller shaped by the real-world experience of SWAT veteran and FBI National Academy graduate Donald E. Patterson.
