The Loyal Traitor

When the U.S. stages a quiet resurrection—bringing a presumed-dead double agent back into a buried lab in rural Vermont—the fragile balance between secrecy and survival shatters. Will Morgan’s Watchtower unit inherits Nusquam, a disguised farmhouse housing Echo Reef, a quantum prototype that can unmask lies, decrypt the future, and rewrite national power. Shen Ke—reborn as Nemo—builds the machine; Genevieve (now Gloria) returns to calibrate it; but everyone watching Nusquam has different orders.
