Description

The Deep Surge!
Echoes of Genius!
A Technothriller, Alternate History Science Fiction!

A disgraced physicist. A ruthless billionaire. A secret that could change the world. When Benjamin Franklin awakens in the future, he must join forces with a brilliant scientist to prevent a global catastrophe and fight for human freedom.

The Deep Surge raises fascinating questions about innovation, liberty, scientific discovery, and the stewardship of transformative technologies.

The core themes are:
  • Energy Equals Freedom
  • Knowledge Should Be Shared
  • Founding Ideals vs Modern Reality
  • Technology Is Not the Enemy 
Benjamin Franklin has returned to a high-tech world he no longer recognizes, and he is the only one who can stop a global energy collapse.

For readers who love Michael Crichton’s 
scientific suspense, Steve Berry’s historical conspiracies, and the puzzle-box pacing of The Da Vinci Code.

The Scientist on the Run
A disgraced MIT physicist has discovered the ultimate secret: a way to harness 
limitless clean energy from the Earth. But in a world run by corporate monopolies, a discovery that makes energy free is a death sentence. Targeted by a global surveillance state, her reputation is erased and her life discredited.

The Corporate Tyrant
A ruthless billionaire CEO will stop at nothing to own this new energy. He controls the power grid, the governments, and the 
digital warfare tools used to silence anyone who threatens his billion-dollar energy monopoly. He thinks he has won, until a variable he never saw coming enters the equation.

The Founding Father
Anchored in 2025 by a mysterious genetic legacy, Benjamin Franklin wakes up in modern-day Philadelphia. He isn't a dusty historical relic; he is a man of 
science and ingenuity who is horrified to find the Republic he built in the hands of modern-day monarchs. Using a 300-year-old cipher hidden in his original Almanack, Franklin tracks down the one scientist who can help him finish the work of liberty.

The Final Experiment
Now, the 
Founding Father and the physicist must form a new "Junto" to solve a puzzle three million years in the making. From the historic alleys of Philadelphia to a high-tech facility inside a volcano, they are the only ones who can stop a global power grid failure that would trigger a tectonic catastrophe.

Timed for the America 250 Anniversary
The Deep Surge is a high-concept technothriller that asks: Is the American Experiment still standing? Or has the "Great Fluid" of liberty finally run dry? 

If you're planning to join our next session, now is the best time to start Echoes of the Genius: The Deep Surge.....

Nothing feels better than being part of a discussion and knowing every twist.
