Flashpoint is a taut Cold War thriller that uncovers the volatile intersection of espionage, science, and international diplomacy. Madelaine Duke presents a chilling scenario in which a nuclear physicist becomes the target of competing intelligence agencies, each desperate to control—or silence—his groundbreaking research. The novel details the psychological strain of living under surveillance, the moral ambiguity of state-sponsored operations, and the terrifying consequences of scientific knowledge falling into the wrong hands. Duke constructs a high-stakes narrative that illustrates the fragility of peace in a world teetering on the edge of annihilation.
