SHADOWS OF DECEPTION

A Crime Thriller

About the Book

In Shadows of Deception, Detectives Spider McNeeley and Sedox Overton find themselves drawn into a chilling investigation after three mysterious deaths shake the quiet corridors of Charlotte Regional Hospital. As they follow the evidence, they uncover a deadly conspiracy involving VX nerve agent—a banned chemical weapon—and a network of lies that stretches to the highest levels of power.

At the center of their investigation is Dr. Kamga Bosco, a respected emergency physician and former military toxicologist, whose connection to the victims thrusts him into the spotlight. But as the case deepens, Spider and Sedox begin to question everything they thought they knew.

With manipulated crime scenes, foreign operatives, and powerful enemies at play, the detectives must race against time to uncover the truth before more lives are lost. As tension mounts and loyalties are tested, the line between guilt and innocence blurs.

Shadows of Deception is a tightly woven tale of suspense and revelation, where the pursuit of truth cuts deeper than any weapon—and no one escapes untouched.

Dr. Shirley Ayuk-Takem

“Shadows of Deception grips you from the first chapter. As a fellow physician, I was struck by how real the medical scenarios felt — and how quickly they escalated into something far more sinister. Fote’s writing is urgent, emotional, and layered with suspense."
