Join us in welcoming A.J. Tata author of The Phalanx Code: A Garrett Sinclair Novel. Copies are available for purchase and signing.
The day before his discharge from the Army, General Garrett Sinclair is freed from Ft. Leavenworth Disciplinary Barracks by his former Delta Force operative, Jake Mahegan. Meanwhile, his imprisoned teammates are released from Naval incarceration by a manipulative tech magnate, Mitch Drewson, solely for the purpose of having Sinclair and his Dagger team protect his Project Optimus. Author A. J. Tata uses his vast military experience to create thrillers that feel as if they’re ripped from today’s headlines. Sinclair, newly freed, has to save members of his team while learning of a devastating family secret in the process.
Project Optimus – an ambitious endeavor to empower citizens to protect financial and personal data in the face of increasingly authoritarian federal governments – is going face to face against the threat from Aurelius Blanc and Phalanx Corporation. Phalanx’s data collection and media application is enabling a global security state through partnerships with the major industrialized nations, creating a form of technofascism that monitors the activity of everyone with a smartphone, tablet, computer, or any web connected device.
Though Sinclair is a “free agent,” with no military chain of command to deal with, he directly challenges Drewson’s motives for gathering his entire team for this mission. At that moment, though, Phalanx assassin squads take over an Optimus server farm in California and grab an Optimus coder named Blair Campbell. With Campbell’s well being in jeopardy, Sinclair deploys his team in an attempt to save him and protect the remainder of Optimus so they can complete their vital work, which is highlighted by deciphering the mysterious Phalanx Code, suspected to contain the Phalanx kill list of Optimus employees.
Caught in a deadly game between two tech moguls, and with Phalanx squads hunting him and those he loves, Sinclair must determine who he can trust while a devastating part of his family past comes back to haunt him and everything and everyone he holds dear.
