The Prague Deception
About
Book 1 — The Prague Deception
Some masterpieces hide beauty. Others hide the truth.
When a priceless seventeenth-century Madonna and Child vanishes between museums, intelligence operative Daniel Mercer is sent to recover it before it disappears into the underworld of art theft and espionage.
But the painting conceals more than pigment and legend. Hidden within its layers lies a secret buried since the Cold War, information powerful enough to unmake governments.
As Mercer follows the trail through the mist-soaked streets of Prague, every ally becomes suspect and every revelation deepens the deception. A broker known only as Lenka holds the final clue, but trusting her may be the most dangerous choice of all.
In a world where forgeries can rewrite history, even the brightest light casts a deadly shadow.
The Prague Deception is a tense, elegant blend of espionage, art mystery, and psychological suspense — the first step into the world of The Hidden Light Series.
