The Cryptos Conundrum: A Novel
About this ebook
A fifteen-foot-tall steel sculpture stands in the courtyard of the Central Intelligence Agency, emblazoned with a message that no one can decipher. The three-inch-high letters on the sculpture form a coded message that is central to the survival of mankind—a message hidden in plain sight, displayed in a public space, with the full text available to anyone who has an internet connection.
One man knows exactly what it says. He knows because he created it.
Dr. Jonathan S. Chalmers heads a CIA unit tasked with containing the greatest secret our government has ever kept and planning for its consequences. He alone knows the full story of the threats that face America. Threats that have shaped our country’s past, present, and future. Threats that have consumed his life and even taken the lives of those he loves. If Chalmers can’t save us, nobody can.
Chase Brandon draws on his decades of experience in CIA black ops to deliver a high-intensity, cosmic tale that will leave readers breathless.
