London. Worcestershire. Paris. Vienna.
A royal conspiracy. Buried secrets from Imperial Russia. One man stands between the British Crown and catastrophe.

The Queen’s doctor vanishes overboard from the Royal Yacht Britannia.

A white cat is slaughtered in an English country garden.

A deadly secret from Imperial Russia reawakens.

Twelve-year-old Jack Steele never forgot what he saw—or what others tried to make him forget.

His beloved great-aunt Florence, a trusted servant inside the British royal household, had uncovered a conspiracy so explosive it threatened the very foundations of the monarchy. Before she could reveal the truth, she was branded a traitor.

Ten years later, Steele is drawn back into the shadows when evidence resurfaces: a lost Imperial Russian medal and a mysterious signed photograph of King George V and Czar Nicholas II—artifacts tied to a secret powerful enough to destroy the British Crown.

As Steele hunts across London, Worcestershire, Paris, and Vienna, he uncovers a chilling assassination plot against the Queen of England—and faces a choice that will define his life forever:

Save the Crown.
Or save himself.

Inspired by the royal memoir From Cottage to Palace, Crown Deception is the explosive opening chapter in the Jack Steele saga—a gripping thriller of royal intrigue, espionage, betrayal, and deadly deception.

Perfect for readers of political thrillers, espionage fiction, royal conspiracies, and historical mysteries.
