Operation Skipjack: A Thrilling Dive into the Future of Cyber Warfare and Space Defense.
A world on the brink. A new frontier in military dominance. A race against time.
When a high-stakes confrontation in the Pacific reveals an unseen threat, Admiral Nikki Fury knows there’s more at play than meets the eye. With tensions escalating, only one thing stands between war and deterrence: Skipjack—a revolutionary space-based defense system designed to outmatch stealth technology and expose adversaries before they strike.
But as the U.S. military fast-tracks deployment, a shadowy cyber assault cripples a key contractor, threatening to upend everything. Now, Admiral Fury must navigate shifting alliances, quantum warfare, and a relentless enemy willing to do anything to stop Skipjack from taking flight.
Blending cutting-edge technology with military intrigue, Operation Skipjack is a gripping tale of innovation, deception, and the fight to secure the future.
The battle for supremacy is not just on the seas—it’s above them.

About the Author
Steve Stratton started his military career at the White House Communications Agency supporting the needs of President’s Ford and Carter, Vice President’s Rockefeller and Mondale and Secretary of State Henry Kissinger. His work took him around the world introducing him to new cultures, ways of thinking, and the various agencies tasked with projecting and protecting American interests abroad. The jump to the US Secret Service was an easy transition but after several years and an election campaign, Steve left for the commercial sector.
Steve was awarded his Green Beret in 1986. From the 80’s through 2000 he deployed with 20th Special Forces on counter-drug and training missions in the SOUTHCOM region. His civilian contractor time includes support for USCENTCOM, USSOCOM, and several intelligence agencies. Today he is retired but advising cyber security companies that support the warfighter and intelligence community. When he is not writing, you can find him mountain biking, trout fishing, or hunting in Colorado.
His first novel, Shadow Tier, was named a 2023 Bronze Medal winner by the Military Writers Society of America.
