A high stakes global conspiracy. Only one woman has the power to stop it.
The first book in the explosive digital bestselling thriller series
Can a museum curator with a brain wired to decrypt riddles, ancient or cyber, break a code embedded in a mysterious artifact? Why will five governments do anything to protect it?
Though her specialty is Roman collections at the British Museum in London, history expert turned government agent Calla Cress finds herself thrown into a bizarre international case. A code is written in an unbreakable script on an ancient manuscript whose origin is as debatable as the origin of life. Could its decryption lead to a global cyber war?
When the highly guarded document goes missing from a Berlin museum and ends up in her personal belongings with a long-hidden secret concerning her parents, Calla is backed into a corner. Forced on a run halfway across the world, Calla is pursued from the underground scene of espionage intelligence into a desperate hunt for truth and survival. Soon she discovers that she's made of tougher hide than she'd ever imagined.
Her only allies are few but resourceful. There's:
Nash Shields, a handsome yet mysterious National Security Agency (NSA), intelligence security advisor. Jack Kleve, a witty technology entrepreneur.
The trio is thrown into a sophisticated conspiracy spanning continents and dating back several centuries. The secret of the manuscript is only the beginning . . . The truth could cost them their lives.
