The Giza Cipher

In this explosive sequel to The Hermit Kingdom, Shane Riley, indomitable retrieval specialist, finds himself on a new high-stakes mission. A stolen artifact – an ancient relic shrouded in mysteries and encoded with a cryptographic puzzle – has landed in the wrong hands.

Riley's objective is clear yet daunting: recover the relic and solve the enigmatic code...

...Before it sets off a catastrophic global event.

When an underground black-market dealer known only as Vyse — clearly an historical throwback — targets the Great Pyramid of Menkaure, he has more in mind than a simple burglary. The relic he snatches contains a deadly cipher, an ancient puzzle linked to the mysteries of the stars, and it harbors the potential to shake civilizations to their core.

With every intelligence agency in the world on the hunt, only one man can beat them to the punch: Shane Riley.

Riley, still bearing the emotional scars from his previous mission, has sworn off retrieval operations involving people, preferring the company of inanimate, less complicated objects. But as he delves into the complexities of the Giza Cipher, he soon realizes that it's more than just an object. It's a ticking time bomb, and time is running out.

Thrown into a shadowy world of conspiracy and danger, Riley navigates cryptic clues, historical mysteries, and treacherous adversaries. As he follows the relic's trail across the globe, he uncovers a shocking connection to his own past. This journey will challenge everything he knows about himself and the world around him.

The Giza Cipher is an adrenaline-charged adventure that combines cryptology, history, and non-stop action. It's a race against the clock where the past and present collide, and the fate of humanity hangs in the balance.
