The Concord Protocol
About
A forgotten document. A forged truth. A historian who must decide which version of history deserves to survive.
Washington, D.C., 1984.
When historian Edgar T. Bellows uncovers a microfilm hidden inside a sealed diplomatic ledger, he stumbles onto a secret the government has buried for generations, a rewritten constitutional amendment that never should have existed. What begins as an archival curiosity quickly unravels into a conspiracy built to reshape the nation’s very foundation.
With the Cold War tightening around him, Edgar joins forces with Wren Mallory, a former intelligence analyst who believes the forgery may have been part of a postwar directive known only as The Concord Protocol. Their investigation draws them through abandoned embassies, coded radio networks, and mirror archives where every truth has a reflection, and every reflection lies.
But someone is listening.
A shadow network is intercepting transmissions before they’re sent, rewriting signals in real time, and hunting those who try to expose it. As the lines between past and present collapse, Edgar must choose: protect the truth that built his country, or destroy the lie that sustains it.
From the author of Badge Number 13 comes a haunting Cold War thriller that blends historical intrigue with the moral tension of modern surveillance. The Concord Protocol is a story about loyalty, legacy, and the price of knowing too much, told in prose as sharp as wire and as immersive as fog over the Potomac.
