I am excited to share the publication and release of my new book, Shadow of the Dragon. I've been working on this crime-thriller novel for the past six months. Although it's a work of fiction, much of the material is based on facts.

Here's a synopsis of the book.

"A Global Conspiracy. Two Relentless Agents. One Shocking Truth.

 In the shadowy underbelly of global crime, a sinister alliance threatens to reshape the world order. Hong Kong detective Blake Morgan and DEA agent Angela Torres are thrust into a web of international intrigue where nothing is as it seems.

 As they unravel a complex conspiracy involving a Hong Kong Triad, a Mexican drug cartel, and the CIA, Morgan and Torres must navigate treacherous waters. From the neon-drenched alleys of Kowloon to the sun-baked streets of Tijuana, from smoke-filled backrooms to the marbled halls of Washington D.C., our heroes must navigate a labyrinth of lies, betrayal, and political intrigue. With each step, the danger mounts and the line between ally and enemy blurs.

 At the heart of it all lies a shocking truth: a clandestine operation to flood America with fentanyl, orchestrated by unlikely bedfellows. The CIA, in its misguided attempt to stem the tide of rising communist groups in Mexico, has made a devil's bargain with the very criminals they should be fighting.

 With time running out and the stakes higher than ever, Morgan and Torres must risk everything to expose the truth. But in a world where loyalty is a currency and power is the ultimate prize, can two dedicated law enforcement officers hope to make a difference?

 "Shadow of the Dragon" is a pulse-pounding thriller that blends high-stakes action with geopolitical intrigue. As Morgan and Torres race against time, they'll discover that the line between ally and enemy is often blurred and that sometimes the greatest dangers lie closest to home.

 In this gripping tale of corruption, redemption, and unexpected romance, author Ray Williams delivers a stark reminder that there are no true winners—only survivors in the global power game. This white-knuckle ride will leave you breathless. Williams' razor-sharp prose and intricate plot take you on an exhilarating ride, leaving you on edge until the very last page."

I invite you to pick up a copy from Amazon or Barnes and Noble in paperback, ebook or hardcover formats. It's the perfect read for these reflective autumn days!
