Description
The Magdalene Cipher by Jim Hougan is a fast-paced espionage thriller packed with conspiracy, betrayal, and ancient secrets. When CIA agent Jack Dunphy’s surveillance target is brutally murdered in London, he’s abruptly recalled to the United States and buried in a meaningless desk job. But Dunphy isn’t one to quietly fade away. Determined to uncover the reason behind his sudden demotion, he turns his formidable spy skills inward — on the very agency that betrayed him.
What he unearths is a centuries-old conspiracy stretching back to the time of Christ, implicating some of the most powerful figures in history. As Dunphy follows the shadowy clues, he finds himself embroiled in a deadly game, where secret societies, ancient codes, and ruthless assassins collide. The Magdalene Cipher delivers a clever blend of modern espionage and historical intrigue, appealing to fans of Dan Brown and Robert Ludlum alike.
