Are we being told the truth—or are we living in an age of
carefully crafted lies?

In Breaking Deceptions, Kirk Sassak, a mechanical engineer turned first-time
author, delivers a powerful exposé on the modern media’s role in
distorting truth and reshaping national narratives. From COVID-19
misinformation and the Hunter Biden laptop cover-up to the media’s
radically different treatment of the 2020 BLM riots and the January 6 Capitol
riot, this book takes readers on a gripping journey through some of the most
controversial events in recent American history.

With the structured mind of an engineer and the creative soul of a poet,
Sassak dissects media narratives with precision and passion—shedding
light on the rise of politically motivated journalism and its impact on
democracy, freedom, and truth.

🛑 They lied to us about:

● Russian Collusion

● Charlottesville

● COVID Lab Leaks

● Hunter Biden’s Laptop

● President Biden’s Mental Fitness

● And much more…

🔥 Whether you’re politically left, right, or somewhere in between,
Breaking Deceptions challenges you to confront the uncomfortable reality: a
biased media is dangerous—no matter whose side they’re on.

 

Perfect For Readers Who:

 

● Are concerned about media bias, fake news, and propaganda

● Want to understand how misinformation influences political outcomes

● Appreciate investigative non-fiction that questions mainstream narratives

Seek a thought-provoking, politically charged read rooted in real events

 

 

About the Author

Kirk Sassak
Kirk Sassak is a mechanical engineer and Engineering Manager in the
ePowertrain division of a global automotive driveline supplier. With over two
decades of experience applying structured problem-solving and technical
precision, Kirk brings the same analytical mindset to his writing. His passion
for truth and clarity—both in engineering and in public
discourse—fuels his work as a nonfiction author.

Kirk’s journey as a writer began in 2011 during a professional
assignment in Mexico, where he first discovered a surprising talent for
poetry. Though his writing took a backseat for nearly a decade, the events of
2020—particularly media coverage surrounding COVID-19 and major
political events—reignited his creative drive and moral conviction.
Blending the logic of an engineer with the expressive voice of an artist, Kirk
now writes with purpose: to challenge mainstream narratives, spark awareness,
and advocate for journalistic integrity.

When he’s not writing or managing complex engineering projects, Kirk
enjoys exploring the intersections of art, logic, and truth. Breaking
Deceptions is his first published book.

 “It wasn’t like breaking into a prison was on my bucket list. But
then again, neither was helping terrorists stage a jailbreak. And yet, here I
was.”

A prison break. Betrayals. Battle for survival.
September 2014. Yemen’s going up in flames, and Americans are
caught in the inferno. Delta Force Captain Axel Blaze is sent straight into
the

fire to extract Khalid Al-Mansour, an Al-Qaeda moneyman turned informant.
Khalid promises intel that could save American lives, but it

comes at a price— his sons must be rescued from a rebel-controlled
prison deep in hostile territory.

Blaze’s team pulls off the high-risk breakout, but the fallout is
deadly. A chain of betrayals is set off. One of Khalid’s sons turns

traitor, leading Al-Qaeda right to the US embassy. Trapped, outnumbered, and
fighting on hostile ground, Blaze and his team face a ruthless enemy

and impossible odds.

But this isn’t just about survival—this is about sending a
message.


Blaze won’t just hold the line—he’ll blow the enemy to hell.

My kind of hero!”

“Blaze is a badass in the real sense of the word. He doesn’t stop
until every bad guy is broken or dead.”

What happens when a runaway baker meets a grumpy cowboy? It’s a recipe
for plenty of sparks and a fairytale romance.

Dumping her cheating fiancé was a good decision—getting stranded
in Wyoming, not so much. The silver lining? A breathtaking ranch and a hunky
cowboy, if only he wasn’t so broody.

Luke Wolfe likes his life simple—running Sunrise Ridge Ranch, keeping to
himself, and avoiding anything that even remotely resembles love.

He doesn’t need company.

He certainly doesn’t need a stubborn city girl messing with his
perfectly ordered life.

But Goldi Summers turns his world upside down in the best way.

Just when Luke’s ready to admit he wants forever, an accident erases her
memory of him. Can he make her heart remember what her mind has forgotten?

1242. Wounded and captured after the Battle on the Ice, English knight
Richard Fitz Simon becomes the unlikely guest of Prince Alexander Nevsky of
Novgorod. Curious about his prisoner, Alexander commands his scholar to record
Richard’s tale.

Richard’s story begins in 1203, when betrayal shatters his path to
knighthood and drives him from England to the merchant city of Lübeck.
There, entangled in an illicit affair and the cutthroat salt trade, he finds
only temporary refuge. Fleeing once again, he joins the Livonian Brothers of
the Sword—a militant order sworn to spread Christendom across the pagan
Baltic.

Amid the cold austerity of Riga’s commandery and the looming threat of
enemy tribes, Richard must battle not just for survival, but for meaning in a
life shaped by violence, doubt, and fractured loyalties. When a pagan army
threatens to overrun their outpost, he faces a final reckoning—one that
will test his faith, his honor, and the limits of his courage.
