Esquelle and the Tesla Protocol — Joe Dacy

Two terrorist kidnappers are watching her.

NSA agents are monitoring her every move.

And no less than five national intelligence services are about to disrupt her quiet life.

Her name is Esquelle Données, a beautiful French information technologist. She's about to be the victim of the Tesla Protocol, the secret tool of a shadowy cabal within the US government that will stop at nothing to suppress her brother's latest invention. It's a quantum-based communications device, a world-changing breakthrough which cannot be traced or surveilled.

From Paris to the Pacific Northwest, Esquelle must fight for her freedom and her life in this high-octane, hard-science techno-thriller: an intricate dance of cause-and-effect where the axioms of the past drive the decisions of the future in a world where knowledge embraces both power and peril.
