The Poppy Score: A Paul Marcus Thriller

About

Former CIA cryptographer Paul Marcus is living quietly with his family in the mountains of Montana when an unscheduled visit shatters his isolation. He’s asked to decrypt seven ancient pages written more than 2,500 years ago by Sun Tzu, author of The Art of War—pages long believed lost and never meant for Western eyes.

The encrypted text may be the missing fourteenth chapter of The Art of War, a secret once cracked in China and buried for a reason. Now it has resurfaced, and an ominous deadline looms.

If Marcus fails, the result will be the deadliest global threat in history.

THE POPPY SCORE is a high-stakes international thriller where ancient wisdom becomes a modern weapon.
