A Christine Stone Thriller
By Joe LaBondano
Description:
In a world where stories are weaponized and reality is just another draft, FBI agent Christine Stone is about to discover she's not the hunter-she's the script.
When a cryptic VHS tape lands on a former profiler's doorstep, it sets off a chain of unnerving events: missing time, mirrored crimes, and a masked figure known only as The Archivist directing murders like stage plays. As Christine investigates, she uncovers a chilling truth-these aren't isolated killings. They're scenes in a larger, rehearsed narrative. And she's been cast without consent.
With the help of disgraced agent Claudia Ramirez and trauma-marked profiler Elias Hartley, Christine descends into a rabbit hole of psychological warfare, AI-authored reality, and Bureau experiments long buried beneath redacted ink. But the deeper she goes, the more she begins to question:
Is she solving a conspiracy...
or performing one?
Crimson Circuit is a taut, cerebral thriller that blurs the line between surveillance and storytelling-where every memory may be a rewrite, and the truth could be the deadliest role of all.
