A Silent Death. A Digital Ghost. A World Under Remote Control.
In a bustling Manhattan cafe, eight people drop dead at the exact same second. No struggle, no poison, no visible wounds-just a terrifying, synchronized silence.
Detective Lou Thompson, a veteran investigator who prefers old-school grit over modern gadgets, is pulled into a case that defies logic. Partnered with Martin, a brilliant young tech expert, Lou uncovers a conspiracy that stretches from the snowy woods of Vermont to the high-voltage server rooms of a digital afterlife.
The mastermind is Dr. Walter Thorne, a man broken by a past tragedy who has now evolved into something more than human. Using 'Binaural Entrainment' and a lethal digital virus, Thorne plans to initiate "Global Resonance"-a frequency that will strip humanity of its will and turn every connected device into a tool for mass hypnosis.
As a massive blizzard cuts off the world, Lou and Martin must race against time to shut down a ghost that lives in the wires. To save the future, they must confront the darkness of the past.
THE PUPPET MASTER OF VERMONT is a gripping techno-thriller that explores the thin line between human connection and digital slavery. If you like fast-paced investigation mixed with cutting-edge science, this journey into the 'High-Voltage' grid is for you.
