A Financial Thriller

By: Mel Mattison

Narrated by: Kyle Snyder

It's 2027. The AI revolution has merged with quantum computing to take control of global financial markets. Operated by the mysterious Bank for International Settlements based in Basel, Switzerland, the quantum supercomputer known as ICARUS has promised the world a more stable economy, devoid of bank failures and volatile share prices. And it has delivered . . . until now.

Rory O'Connor is the financial genius who helped create ICARUS, but after the tragic death of his best friend, he's checked out of high finance and into a luxury Caribbean condo, trading cryptocurrencies on the shores of San Juan.

When the stock market starts manifesting erratic behavior, what begins as a favor drags Rory into a dangerous labyrinth of deceit and international intrigue. Leaders at some of the world's most powerful central banks are planning to take down the US dollar as global reserve currency, replacing it with a gold- and silver-backed digital currency of their own.

Now, Rory must travel to Switzerland, overcome his demons, and save the world from financial chaos. Everything is on the line. If he fails, humanity descends into an economic Armageddon controlled by madmen and psychopathic bankers.

Best finance-related thriller I’ve ever read!

Great story, on point for a lot of what is going on in the world today. If into finance, monetary issues, crypto, etc., then this is for you. Fast-paced and page-turning. The plot is strong and intriguing, and the narrator does a good job handling a full array of characters from all over the world.

Awesome

I just wanted to say thanks, I have enjoyed and understood every sentence. thanks again 😊

Fantastic Read! A sleeper hit in the making.

A narrative that is not only engaging and highly plausible but very well written. The book has dimensions and provides levels of insight into a highly complex field that hook the reader regardless of market exposure and knowledge. A fun read! Bravo, Mel!

Not good

Predictable and poorly written. Plenty of explanation of finance terms and history, but not a good story. Chore to finish.

DUMB writing and careless editing.

Just don’t bother. Wasted a credit on poor quality. If you have a brain and can count, the plot just gets worse.
