"Reviewed By Grant Leishman for Readers' Favorite

Signals of Deception by Dave Osborn is a fast-paced, action-filled cybercrime thriller at the highest level. When ICE Cybercrime experts based on the Texas border begin to notice data flows of information that appear to have no relationship to cartel activities, red flags are raised. CIA Cyber-operations agent Scott Douglass is concerned when he realizes these data packages are feeding directly into AEGIS, the U.S. Department of Defense’s high-tech AI, and potentially providing false or misleading information about military actions worldwide to those in power. He quickly realizes he is involved in a race against time to convince the powers that be that supposed offensive military buildups by the Soviets and the Chinese may not be real. The potential for World War III, however, is very real, and only Scott and his team can prevent it.

Signals of Deception offers a fascinating premise. The idea that misinformation and overreliance on technology can be used as a weapon, especially by rogue state actors to confuse and obfuscate the true intentions of their military actions, is intriguing. Dave Osborn has created a thoroughly believable scenario as well as a lead character, a “hero”, who is capable of multiple adventures and missions. This story rides the wave of tension that the plot allows due to the time constraints on Scott and his team to achieve results. It was both surprising and annoying to see the blind faith that so many of the military and the political establishment had in their AI Defense program. Although the risks of not accepting the information were enormous, one would have to argue that the dangers of blindly accepting the information were even greater. For the action aficionado, there is much more than cyber-detection involved in this clever plot; there is also plenty of good old-fashioned operational spycraft to keep readers on the edge of their seats. I was thrilled to note that Scott Douglass will be a recurring character, and I look forward to reading more of Dave Osborn's work. This was an exciting and well-written story that I thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommend."
