The Iron Admiral: Deception

The heart-stopping sequel to The Iron Admiral: Conspiracy

Grand Admiral Chaka Saahren has it all—but not the woman he loves.

Allysha Marten, a brilliant Systems Engineer, is determined to stay as far away as possible from Saahren, the Fleet's top admiral. Blaming him for the tragic death of innocent civilians, including her own father, she reluctantly agrees to a temporary Fleet assignment—under the firm condition that she avoids the man she holds responsible.

With a debt to pay and no one left to turn to, Allysha's cheating husband Sean O'Reilly sees her as his last lifeline. His risky plan is simple and brutal: capture Allysha and force her into one final job that could settle his debts and save his hide

Caught between two men and a galaxy-wide conspiracy, Allysha must confront hard truths—about herself, her past, and those who would use her talents for deadly ends. As she uncovers layers of betrayal and deception, it dawns on her that she has been used for a terrible purpose. She'll have to trust Saahren once again, knowing the choice he faces could cost her everything.

This is a science fiction romance with action, politics, non-humanoid aliens, and some non-specific sex scenes. This book is the sequel to The Iron Admiral: Conspiracy and continues the same story.

Twolip Reviews recommended read "Holy cow! Greta van der Rol's The Iron Admiral 1: Conspiracy was outstanding, but its sequel is almost beyond compare…. Deception is, in my humble opinion, one of the five best space operas ever written. Hands down!"

'Loved Deception even more than book number one, Conspiracy. Well-written, fast-paced, a story of substance. You'll read this and its predecessor again and again.'

'I cannot recommend this book strongly enough. The author combined everything that is great about science fiction–space travel, "alien" species, politics, military engagements, technology–and everything that is great about romance–a strong, sexy hero and a strong, sexy heroine–into one absolutely breathtaking story.'
