Agent 3038

By Mr Bede Key and Bede Key

One man saved the world. Now he has to live in it.

In 1981, a boy found a secret architecture hidden within the code of a Sinclair ZX81. It was more than a puzzle-it was a digital handshake that marked him for a life of "terminal corrections."

Decades later, he is the Service's elite Ghost: Agent 3038. A master of logic and kinetic violence, he lives a perfect domestic lie in a stone cottage in Dorset. To his wife, Maya, he is a quiet consultant. To the Service, he is the only weapon capable of stopping One-a rogue genius and mirror image of himself who is orchestrating a global biological reset from a mountain vault in the Shaksgam Valley.

As a pandemic begins to brew in the shadows, 3038 must descend into a subterranean world of emerald bioluminescence to stop a man who wants to delete humanity's "inefficiency." It is a race where victory is a stalemate, and the prize is a world forever changed by a virus he couldn't fully stop.

Moving from high-altitude combat to the quiet village fayres of the English coast, Agent 3038 is a haunting techno-thriller about the heavy price of secrets, the architecture of global catastrophe, and a hero who finds his final mission twisting balloons for children while the world breathes a different air.

The audit is final. The Ghost is home. But the memory of the Shaksgam never sleeps.
