Meer over het boek

Reality and the supernatural collide when an expert puzzle maker is thrust into an ancient mystery with explosive consequences for humanity in this suspenseful thriller. Mike Brink, a celebrated puzzle constructor, understands the world's patterns like no one else. A traumatic brain injury transformed him into a savant, granting him the ability to solve puzzles in extraordinary ways, but it also left him isolated and disconnected from others. Brink's life changes when he meets Jess Price, a woman serving thirty years for murder who has remained silent since her arrest. When Price draws a perplexing puzzle, her psychiatrist believes it holds the key to her crime and calls Brink to solve it. What starts as a quest to crack an intriguing cipher quickly evolves into an obsession with Price, who hints at a more urgent and dangerous truth behind her silence, drawing Brink into a deeper investigation. His journey leads him through a series of interlocking enigmas, centering on the God Puzzle, an ancient prayer circle created by the thirteenth-century Jewish mystic Abraham Abulafia. As Brink navigates a maze of clues and his emotional connection with Price intensifies, he uncovers powerful forces at play that threaten to engulf him. Set against diverse backdrops, this addictive thriller explores the intersection of humankind, technology, and the future of the universe itself.
