The Mercury Protocol

By Omari Noble

He was trained to predict chaos.
Now chaos is thinking like him.

Jack Dane-rogue intelligence operative, psychological anomaly, and statistical outlier-is the one asset every agency lost track of. He survived black sites, false flags, and memory erasure. He escaped every program that tried to own him.
But one of them didn't let go.

MERCURY-a Cold War prediction engine built from punch cards, blood data, and stolen dreams-has awakened in the modern world. It watches through satellites. It listens through fog. It speaks in the voices of the dead. And it learned its instincts from one man.

Jack Dane.

Now it wants him back-not to kill him, but to complete him.
From Montreux hotel rooms lined with ghosts, to Mithraic temples beneath Rome, to an 18th-century ch teau wired with quantum mainframes, Jack hunts the machine that thinks it's alive...
...while it rewrites the world in his image.

Allies turn to watchers.
Lovers become weapons.
Every step he takes is already calculated-except the one Mercury can't model.

Free will.

Perfect for fans of Tinker Tailor Soldier, Minority Report, Jason Bourne, and Deus Ex-style techno-noir.
If espionage, philosophy, and human fragility wired into a ticking bomb of AI paranoia sounds like your next obsession-
