The battle for control of Iraq was over. But the real war had just begun.
In the fractured aftermath of the Iraq invasion, former UK special forces operative Blake Harris stalks the streets of Baghdad hunting former regime members. After years undercover, he knows the city's darkest corners—and the terrifying truth that something deadly has slipped through the cracks.
When brilliant epidemiologist Dr. Alice Bishop is called in to investigate a suspicious disease outbreak in New York, the evidence points to something engineered—a designer pathogen that shouldn't exist.
As Harris and Bishop race against time to identify its source, they become targets in a shadowy game of international espionage. From Baghdad's bombed-out streets to the sterile laboratories of Iraq's former weapons program, they unearth a conspiracy that spans continents—and a scientific breakthrough that was never meant to be found.
With insurgent attacks escalating and intelligence leaks threatening their mission, Harris and Bishop must navigate a web of shifting loyalties to prevent a global catastrophe. But in a landscape where today's ally is tomorrow's enemy, the truth may be the most dangerous weapon of all.
A masterful thriller that blends military espionage, biological warfare, and desperate heroism against the volatile backdrop of post-invasion Iraq. Shadow Vector will keep you turning pages late into the night. Perfect for fans of Tom Clancy, Michael Crichton, and Robert Ludlum.

Robin Crumby is the British author of 'The Hurst Chronicles', a post-apocalyptic series set on the south coast of England in the aftermath of a deadly flu pandemic. Since reading John Wyndham’s Day of the Triffids as a child, Robin became fascinated by end of the world dystopian literature and was inspired to start writing by Cormac McCarthy’s 'The Road' and Emily St. John Mandel’s 'Station Eleven'. Why? Because post-apocalyptic fiction fires the imagination like nothing else. Pondering what comes next, who would survive, what would life look like? Much of the best fiction in this popular genre focuses on brain-eating zombies or events unfolding in the USA, so Robin determined to write a story set in the UK. His Eureka moment came wandering the shingle beach at Milford-on-sea, inspired by the beauty and rich history of the Solent. Where better to survive the end of the world than a medieval castle surrounded by water? Robin spent much of his childhood messing about in boats, exploring the many waterways, harbours and military forts of the Isle of Wight, where 'The Hurst Chronicles' series is set.
