The Red In The Wrong Profession

Washington, D.C., 1979. The Cold War is no longer a distant threat—it's pressing in on America's doorstep. When FBI counterintelligence agent Preston Wynne's twelve‑year‑old niece uncovers a coded message tucked inside a classic novel at the local bookstore, she sets in motion a dangerous chain of events. The cryptic clue points to a shadowy Russian spy ring operating closer than anyone imagined, and somehow it seems to involve an operative who works as a teacher.

As Preston races to decipher the message, he finds himself caught between loyalty, secrecy, and a ruthless enemy determined to unearth America's most guarded innovations. What begins as a child's accidental discovery soon escalates into a perilous hunt across the capital, where every page turned could expose a new betrayal.

The question isn't just whether Preston can stop the spies—it's whether he can do so before the next secret falls into Soviet hands, changing the course of the Cold War forever.
