The Gold Box was only the beginning.

Ten years after the events of The Midas Protocol, Hank Raglan is still gone — a man swallowed by war, conspiracy, and a secret powerful men have spent a decade trying to bury.

book cover call of minotaur part 1 3DCaroline Friday has rebuilt her life as an investigative journalist, but some stories refuse to stay dead. When old secrets resurface and new evidence points back to Hank’s disappearance, Caroline is pulled into a hidden world of impossible technology, ancient power, and consequences still unfolding in the wake of September 11.

Meanwhile, Ben Barons finds himself drawn toward a mystery far older than Pittsburgh, Iraq, or the modern world itself. What begins as curiosity soon becomes something stranger, darker, and far more dangerous.

As Caroline follows the trail Hank left behind, the truth begins to take shape: the Gold Box was not an ending. It was an opening. The men who profited from it are still alive. The forces behind it are still watching.

And somewhere beyond the edge of known history, the labyrinth is beginning to open.
