About the Book



Former CIA undercover operative Brandon takes readers deep into the mystery of one of the most famous unsolved codes in the world, in this novel of suspense and conspiracy theory. Available in a tall Premium Edition.



Book Synopsis



Former CIA undercover operative Chase Brandon takes us deep into the mystery of Cryptos, a work of art containing a seemingly uncrackable code, in The Cryptos Conundrum.

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 the statue's message says--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 would terrify us if we knew them. Threats that have shaped our country's past, present, and future. Threats that have become his life's work, requiring all his talents, all his energy, and even the lives of members of his family.

If Chalmers can't save us, nobody can.

Former CIA operative Chase Brandon tells a high-intensity, cosmic tale that will leave readers breathless.



Review Quotes




It takes a CIA agent with 4 decades of black ops to write the greatest agency thriller of all time. Only an operative with that much inside knowledge and experience could pull it off. It'll keep you up all night! David Hagberg, New York Times bestselling author of Abyss"
