Before his untimely death, he left behind a cryptic message hidden in a library book—a puzzle Alex can’t ignore.

Together, they begin decoding Julian’s clues, uncovering disturbing evidence that Neurona isn’t just dangerous—it’s deadly. But as they dig deeper, the threats mount.

Powerful forces are determined to bury the truth about Neurona, and Alex realizes the stakes are higher than they ever imagined. The deeper they go, the closer they come to uncovering a chilling conspiracy tied to Neurona’s development—a conspiracy that cost Julian his life. With time running out and danger closing in, Alex must solve the final cipher to expose the truth. But as secrets are revealed, Alex begins to wonder if the real threat might be closer than they think. The Final Cipher is a suspenseful tale of betrayal, danger, and the relentless pursuit of truth, where every answer uncovers more questions and trust can be a fatal mistake.

Adrian Kaine was once the deadliest operative in Shadow Unit, a black-ops division buried so deep in the government that most agents never lived long enough to speak of it. But when a mission in Kargath Province turned into a massacre, Adrian became the sole survivor, then the government’s most wanted traitor. His squad was slaughtered. Evidence was planted. His name was erased. And those who orchestrated the betrayal made sure he was declared dead. They miscalculated. Eighteen months later, Adrian resurfaces as a ghost in the ruins of his old headquarters, hunting for the truth buried beneath the ashes. But he is not the only one searching. Marcus Hale, his former teammate and supposed friend, now leads a covert kill team tasked with eliminating him. Above Marcus sits Colonel Mason Kade, the official who signed the order that condemned Adrian’s entire squad. And watching all of them from the shadows is a faceless mastermind known only by a single encrypted codename: Cipher. As Adrian follows a trail of classified leaks, dead operatives, and impossible coincidences, he uncovers a horrifying secret: a covert plan known as the Ashen Protocol, designed to rewrite the balance of global power—using bodies like his as the foundation stones. But the deeper he digs, the more the truth twists around him. Old allies hide new agendas. Enemies speak with familiar voices. And the real traitor may be closer than he has ever imagined. Hunted by governments, mercenaries, and a ghost from his past, Adrian must become something colder than a soldier and deadlier than a weapon. He must become the nightmare they tried to bury. And this time… he’s not the one running.
