Author Description

In a world where thinking is augmented, who decides what you believe? The year is 2052. Neural Artificial Intelligence implants have revolutionized humanity- ending wars, curing diseases, unlocking scientific breakthroughs once thought impossible. Most people can't imagine life without them. Sergeant First Class Marcus Merritt doesn't have to imagine. He's an elite government operative hunting the terrorists who reject AI and call it mass social control. His instincts are flawless. His missions are surgical. His loyalty is absolute. Until the day his target reveals an impossible truth: the implant Marcus trusted to sharpen his abilities has been doing far more. It hasn't just enhanced his instincts- it's been shaping his thoughts since childhood. Everything he believes, everything he's done, everything he is-was programmed. Now Marcus faces an impossible choice. Trust the technology that made him a weapon, or join the enemy who just shattered his world. But there's a third option: one that will force him to question not just what he knows, but what it means to be human at all. The Keyes Protocol is more than a techno-thriller. It's an exploration of the ethical questions that define our technological age: Can a tool designed to optimize human potential become a cage? What does free will mean when algorithms shape every choice? In a world of competing voices-technological, spiritual, and human- how do you discern which ones to trust? Perfect for fans of Ted Dekker, Michael Crichton, and The Matrix series.
