The Decrypter and The Sculptor's Code: The Calla Cress Decrypter Thriller Series, Book 18 - Rose Sandy

When mysterious sculptures appear in major cities worldwide, museum curator Calla Cress must decode their ancient symbols before they activate a digital apocalypse targeting anyone with her genetic markers.

Some art is meant to be admired. Some is designed to destroy.

When mysterious sculptures appear overnight in major cities around the world, art experts marvel at their beauty—but British Museum curator Calla Cress recognizes the threat hiding in plain sight.

The statues' intricate symbols form an ancient code that activates when photographed with smartphones. As millions innocently share images online, they unknowingly download fragments of a sophisticated Trojan horse threatening to collapse global infrastructure.

Behind this artistic apocalypse stands tech mogul Ainsley Vaughn, whose connection to Calla's mysterious past hints at a conspiracy stretching back to Renaissance Italy—when Calla's ancestors once served as secret code guardians.

Racing against governments determined to destroy the sculptures at any cost, Calla reunites with NSA operative Nash Shields and tech entrepreneur Jack Kleve. Their pursuit spans from the ruins of Petra to the neon-lit streets of Tokyo, each location revealing another piece of a deadly puzzle.

But when the statues begin releasing a biological agent that affects human DNA, Calla discovers the attack targets people with certain genetic markers—including her own. The code embedded in the sculptures doesn't just threaten technology; it's hunting people like her.

As communications systems fail worldwide and enemies close in, Calla must make an impossible choice: preserve the operatives' most guarded secrets or sacrifice herself to protect millions of innocent lives.

In this pulse-pounding international thriller, art and technology become the perfect weapons—and the key to survival lies encoded in Calla's own genetic makeup.

THE SCULPTOR'S CODE combines the ancient mystery of THE DA VINCI CODE with the high-tech tension of BLACKOUT and the genetic intrigue of ORPHAN X.
