Unmasking the Truth Can Be Dangerous
Maskirovka
A Novel By:
Stephen G. Ford
Maskirovka... that sounds Russian?
It is. In Russian, Maskirovka means denial and deception—something Brian Frost knows all too well.
Once a billionaire and the visionary leader of a private space exploration company, Brian is now disgraced, broke, and searching for answers. What caused his signature mission to fail? Was it the work of mysterious Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs) or was it something else?
After discovering a cryptic message in Africa, Brian assembles a team of unlikely investigators for a globe-spanning hunt for the truth. But someone—or something—is determined to stop him. Could it be the Russians? A complex web of dark global entities tied to UAPs? Or is the real threat lurking within his own team?
Time is running out. As Brian inches closer to uncovering a conspiracy with dark implications, his growing feelings for investigative journalist Alexis Hernandez complicate matters even further. She has her own agenda, and her own perspective on the truth.
Brian must decide if he is following a thread that leads to the truth, or is he being played?

About the Author
Introducing Stephen Ford, a former educator who swapped the classroom for the mysterious world of UAPs and international affairs. Armed with a master’s degree in national security, he’s convinced that most of our global conflict can be traced back to the flaws that have plagued humanity from the beginning of time. As a Christ-follower with a laundry list of flaws, he’s lucky to have a wonderfully patient wife who rolls her eyes at his latest conspiracy theories. Living in southern California with Ginny, his wife of 37 years and two rescued kittens, Scout and Chanel, Stephen enjoys spending time at the beach, hiking, and of course world-wide travel. As long as he is not being tracked by the FBI or NSA, he sometimes can be heard passionately yelling at his television while watching the news. He knows they're listening.
