The Moscow Brief

It’s been five years since CIA agent Travis Bishop walked away from his career... Now living on a ranch in Texas training performance horses, he swore he’d never go back. The arrival of an unexpected guest at the ranch throws Travis headfirst into trouble. A man shows up on his doorstep claiming an agent that saved his life has gone dark and is nowhere to be found. Worse yet, the CIA believes her to be a traitor. A simple dinner to talk through the details leads to murder and a plan to topple the entire US government, a threat that even Travis can’t ignore. Now it’s Travis’s mission to save the agent and uncover the truth, if he can find her in time… If you love espionage and political thriller books by authors like Steven Konkoly, Jason Kasper and J.

Cypher's Fall
2025
Travis Bishop thought his days of covert operations were behind him. After a career that took him to the darkest corners of the world, he found peace in the wide open spaces of his ranch in Texas. Now a horse trainer, Bishop savors the quiet life—training his reining horses, tending to his land, and letting the world pass him by. But that peace is shattered when a brutal attack on former U.S. presidents sends shockwaves through the country. With the situation spiraling out of control, the government turns to Bishop, their best hope to figure out who is behind the stunning attack. Reluctantly pulled back into the world of espionage, Bishop is partnered with CJ Crosswell, a fearless Secret Service agent who’s as sharp as she is determined. Together, they must journey deep into Russia, to a secret location buried within the unforgiving wilderness, where the Russian government’s deadly plan is unfolding. As they track their target through a maze of lies and betrayals, Bishop finds himself torn between his old life as a spy and the man he’s become on the ranch. But with every step closer to the truth, the stakes rise higher. The mission is about more than just stopping a madman—it’s about facing the demons of his past and making a choice between the quiet life he’s always wanted and the dangerous world he can’t escape. The clock is ticking. Moscow watches. Washington’s fate hangs in the balance. Only one side can walk away with the victory.
