The Queen’s doctor vanishes overboard from the Royal Yacht Britannia. A white cat is slaughtered in an English country garden. A deadly secret from Imperial Russia reawakens.
Twelve-year-old Jack Steele never forgot what he saw—or what others tried to make him forget.
His beloved great-aunt Florence, a trusted servant inside the British royal household, uncovered a conspiracy so explosive it threatened the very foundations of the monarchy. Ten years later, evidence resurfaces: a lost Imperial Russian medal and a mysterious signed photograph of King George V and Czar Nicholas II—artifacts linked to a secret powerful enough to shake the British Crown.
As Steele follows a trail of clues across London, Paris, Vienna, and Moscow, he uncovers a chilling assassination plot against the Queen of England. With enemies closing in from all sides and the truth buried beneath generations of deception, Steele must confront a question that could change his life forever:
Save the Crown…
or save himself.
Inspired by the royal memoir From Cottage to Palace, Crown Deception is the explosive prequel to The Deception Series—the untold origin of Jack Steele’s first and most dangerous royal conspiracy.
