THE CAUCASUS CAULDRON is a gripping thriller that delves into a historical moment—an explosive blend of action, suspense, and human complexity.

In the shadowed heart of the Caucasus Mountains, where ancient legends intertwine with modern strife, Georgia launched an ill-fated invasion of Abkhazia in 1992. MI6 spies, Russian FSB agents, and Separatist terrorists collide in a high-stakes struggle for survival.

Mac, a seasoned operative, embarks on a perilous mission during this war. Amidst the rugged terrain and simmering tensions, he encounters two enigmatic women:

1.    Kris, the beguiling Russian FSB officer who befriends him. Can Mac trust her, or is she a double-edged ally?

2.    Doctor Anna, a fiery Separatist rabble-rouser holding the key to Mac’s covert mission. Her loyalties remain shrouded in mystery.

When an assassin vows to kill him, Mac’s world spirals into chaos. “You are a dead man, English. We know who you are. Now you die.”

“The Caucasus Cauldron” is a breath-taking and brutal thriller, weaving together history, intrigue, and unyielding hatred. Will Mac emerge unscathed, or will the cauldron’s seething depths consume him? Discover a world where loyalties blur, and survival demands unthinkable choices. Brace yourself for a tale of danger, death, and the haunting allure of the Caucasus.
