Skystorm

Ryan Decker #4 / 4
by Steven Konkoly
Skystorm (Ryan Decker #4) by Steven Konkoly
Unrated

Unmasking a treasonous American conspiracy is a dangerous move in a heart-pounding thriller about greed, power, revenge, and murder.

After covert investigators Ryan Decker and Harlow Mackenzie demolished APEX, a billion-dollar criminal enterprise, a tenuous truce between the two factions suggested the battle was over. But not for Decker’s director, Senator Margaret Steele. She’s uncovered an even deadlier operation—code name Skystorm.

Skystorm violates every international arms-trafficking law imaginable. And for the senator, exposing the plot may be a gamble too far. APEX has caught wind of the investigation, and they’ve gone on the offensive. Steele’s warning to Decker and Harlow: we’re all in a no-holds-barred fight for our lives.

With APEX’s scorched-earth tactics now unmistakable, Decker and Harlow pull the trigger on their worst-case-scenario plan and move to turn the tables on their ruthless adversary. With a shadowy mercenary team, Decker and Harlow embark for a war—one that Skystorm’s influential DC backers have no intention of losing. To safeguard their treasonous secret, they aim to bury it, along with Decker and everyone he loves.

Steven Konkoly

Steven Konkoly

Before Steven Konkoly ever crafted his first tightly-wound thriller, he was navigating real-world tension aboard naval ships and behind the scenes of military intelligence. His background as a U.S. Naval Academy graduate and intelligence officer didn’t just inform his fiction—it gave it teeth. The kind that bite with precision, pacing, and a steady pulse of dread that lingers long after the mission ends.

Konkoly’s novels, whether they delve into the shadowy corridors of covert government operations or the chilling realism of societal collapse, are rooted in a rare kind of authenticity. His thrillers don’t just move fast—they move smart. Characters operate in murky moral waters, facing decisions where the right answer isn’t always clear, and trust is as dangerous as any weapon. From The Black Flagged series to The Perseid Collapse, his work examines what happens when systems fail and people are forced to navigate the fallout with little more than instinct and grit.

But what makes his books resonate beyond the action is the quiet intensity beneath the surface—moments where personal stakes collide with global consequences, and even the most hardened protagonists are forced to reckon with the cost of survival. There’s an intimacy to the chaos, a sense that the story could hit closer to home than we’d like to admit.

Writing from his home in Maine, Konkoly balances technical precision with visceral emotion. His stories echo with the voice of someone who’s been close to danger, who understands both its draw and its damage. That tension—the push and pull between control and collapse—is what keeps readers coming back, page after page.
