The Patriot Cipher

By Sean McCutchen

A ciphered threat is received by the FBI and they call on their most brilliant cryptanalyst to solve it. Ben Asher is quick, smart, and uncompromising in his stance on justice. He also believes himself unbeatable in the game of intelligence against the nation's enemies, so he is completely unprepared for what the new threat means. Upon solving the first cipher, he brushes it off as just another routine day in the office until the ciphers keep coming. The threat spreads rapidly and soon a team of experts from multiple fields are assembled to tackle the increasingly complex attack on the nation's security. As more threats arrive, those responsible and their motive, remain in the shadows. Operating like ghosts, the only clues left behind are the cryptic ciphers themselves. With the burden of solving the puzzles entirely on his shoulders, Ben is pushed beyond exhaustion and reasoning. The team begins to question their own definition of law and order as the line between terror and patriotism begins to blur. Struggling against his intellectual equal with the clock winding down on a nationwide attack, Ben has to ask himself-what side of history will he be on?
