TWENTY-FOUR WORDS. FOUR HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS. A DEAD MAN'S GAME.
When Oliver Battolo's father, Nate, dies suddenly, he leaves behind more than grief. He leaves a key: a cryptic, twenty-four-word puzzle that unlocks a secret life Oliver never knew existed - a world of clandestine fortunes, cypherpunk legends, surrealist art, and a tragic history that connects them all.
Guided by a mysterious spiritualist and shadowed by a bizarre, trickster-like entity from his childhood, Oliver is plunged into a surreal hunt through the digital and psychological underground. But he's not the only one searching. A ruthless cabal of his father's old associates is closing in, and they will stop at nothing to claim the prize.
To survive, Oliver must not only solve his father's impossible riddle but also confront a terrifying truth: the inheritance he's chasing might not be a treasure, but a trap. And the final word of the puzzle could be his own death sentence.
