The game has started. And it’s personal.

As a long-con deal goes sideways, Aydin uncovers the first thread in a deadly conspiracy.

Can he protect his invention—and a secret that could destroy everything—before time runs out?

“People are shooting at me because they think I created the next level of artificial intelligence.”

Aydin learns that he and his estranged wife, Allison, are unwilling participants in a decades-long experiment. Assassins hired to take the technology and ensure Aydin and Allison’s past stays hidden never stop coming. Can Aydin keep his AI out of enemy hands and his family’s secret safe?

“Level Three Security Protocol is enabled: Voice authentication, retina scan, and DNA validation.”

“Thank you.”

“My pleasure.”

“DNA? On-demand? How the hell will she, your AI, do that?”

“That, Phil, is something you do not want to know. On-demand DNA is the Holy Grail of security authentication.”

Aydin knows he can’t keep everyone alive. Allison’s father, Pops, is happy to: “Let them all die.”

Phil is sure this is not the last mission: “Two weeks. We couldn’t make it two weeks without someone trying to kill us.”

Excerpt

“Miranda Marie LaLonde loved the pond and bayou that fed her pond. The smelly water. The mosquitoes. The constant cacophony of bird calls. She always avoided the cottonmouth and copperhead snakes, but the alligators did not bother her. The gazebo was her sanctuary down to the other side of the fishing pond.”
