The Cipher of Shadows

Embark on a journey with a forbidden manuscript, a hidden code, and a chase across Europe that could reshape the world.

When Florence scholar Marco Rinaldi stumbles onto cryptic marks in Giordano Bruno’s heretical writings, he inherits his father’s unfinished obsession—and the attention of the Brotherhood, an ancient order skilled in turning history into a weapon.

From the fog-choked rails of Innsbruck to the bustling Grand Bazaar of Istanbul and the hidden vaults of Prague, Marco is relentlessly pursued by operatives who can bend infrastructure, markets, and entire cities to their will. His only allies: Alexandra Silva, a British intelligence officer scarred by past encounters with chaos broker Viktor Orlov, and Leyla Demir, a Turkish spy whose loyalties cut as sharp as her knife.

But the cipher Marco carries is not just a map. It is a powerful method—one that could shatter systems if Orlov takes it first, making its protection a matter of life and death.

The first book in The Concordance Series, The Cypher of Shadows, is a high-stakes thriller of cryptography, betrayal, and survival. It’s a heart-pounding read, perfect for fans of Dan Brown, Robert Harris, and Jason Matthews.

Some secrets are worth dying for. Others are designed to kill you
