The Paris Deception

In Paris, a delegate from Hezbollah's March 8 Alliance is gunned down as he arrives at a summit to broker peace, with all blame placed on Israel.
As the world teeters on the edge of war, an unseen force moves in the shadows—a Hamas cell with plans to turn a diplomatic crisis into an all-out catastrophe. When the Vatican Knights uncover a plot that threatens not just the summit but the very stability of the region, one man is sent into the depths of a conflict where alliances blur and enemies strike from the dark.
Kimball Hayden, a former Vatican Knight shaped by violence and a past he cannot outrun, descends into the underbelly of Paris to stop an attack that could ignite global chaos, in tandem with a team of Vatican Knights. But as he moves through bloodstained corridors and battles foes who kill in the name of ideology, he comes face-to-face with his own reflection—a man willing to wield death for what he believes is right.
With time running out and the lives of innocent people hanging in the balance, Kimball must fight not just against an enemy but against the road he walks—a road that leads to ruin. As the dust settles, the world will see the scars left behind. But when the sirens wail and the dead are counted, one question remains: Is Kimball Hayden a savior . . . or just another monster in the dark?
