Genre: Fiction, Espionage, Political
THE U.S. ONCE KIDNAPPED A FOREIGN PRESIDENT. WHAT IF THE TABLES WERE TURNED?
DUE NORTH is a political spy thriller in the tradition of John le Carre and Daniel Silva — procedurally precise, psychologically rigorous, and built around the terrifying possibility that the most competent person in the room is the easiest one to manipulate. A political thriller about the price of truth, the cost of justice, and the thin line between patriotism and treason.This is a political spy thriller in the tradition of le Carré and The Day of the Jackal — morally serious, psychologically precise, and built around a question that doesn't resolve easily: what happens when real intelligence is placed in a false frame, and a decorated soldier reaches exactly the wrong conclusion because she did everything right?
Due North follows Major Sophie Duchamp, a French-Canadian special forces officer who is manipulated by a private intelligence firm into planning an unsanctioned operation against a sitting American president. She aborts at the last possible moment — not because she was wrong about the threat, but because she recognized the trap.
