The Silent Protocol
About
A city still scarred. A signal that could end everything.
Twelve years after the VEGA incident, London teeters on the edge of chaos. When investigative journalist Maya Dalton finds encrypted files hinting at a top-secret operation—Protocol Silence, a plan to blackout global communications—she becomes a target. DS Bhatti warns her: a kill order is out. Meanwhile, Alex Rennie, living under a false identity, receives a chilling message: “Protocol activated. Berlin. 48 hours.”
Forced out of hiding, Alex reunites with Maya and plunges into Berlin’s hacker underworld, where the ghosts of VEGA rise again. Tech mogul Lionel Gage is back, orchestrating a “digital coup” to hijack satellites and reboot VEGA in a new, decentralized form. A rogue ex-Stasi cryptographer offers their only chance to stop it.
As the clock ticks down, betrayals cut deep. MI5 may be compromised, and Alex’s own dark past—code-named ‘Nightfall’—comes to light. Their mission hurtles toward a rooftop showdown, where one must make the ultimate sacrifice.
The satellites are watching. The silence is coming.
And behind it all, a darker force waits to be revealed.

Will Alex and Maya ever get out from under? One crises after another and still they fight. Waiting for book three will be torture because book two of the Trilogy has laid the groundwork for a major explosive ending. Will Maya and Alex win or has the fight been in vain? An outstanding story Superbly written. Highly Recommended.
