Mission Red Scythe

C. W. James

Two novice teen agents. A world teetering on the brink. One mission that could change history.

Summer, 1965.

Eighteen-year-old James Vagus has no clear future-until a shadowy recruiter offers him an extraordinary path: espionage. Thrust into a secret world of danger and deception, James quickly learns that every move is a calculated risk, and every mistake could be his last.

His first mission takes him to the sun-drenched beaches of Miami, where he must infiltrate the Golden Syndicate, a covert organization led by the enigmatic Dr. van Heerden. With the help of fellow agent Dakota Walker, a fiercely skilled Cherokee teen, James plunges into a deadly web of espionage, betrayal, and high-stakes international intrigue.

The deeper they dig, the more dangerous their mission becomes. Clues lead them from the neon-lit streets of Miami to the dark walkways of Vienna, the bustling chaos of Madras, and the treacherous waters of the Florida Keys. As they uncover a plot designed to disrupt the global balance of power, the stakes rise higher than ever.

With enemies closing in and time running out, James and Dakota must rely on their wits, their training, and each other to stop an impending catastrophe. But espionage is never black and white-and survival is never guaranteed.
