Dinner is served. The price is your mind.

For warehouse supervisor Mark Jenkins, scoring a reservation at The Gilded Fork was supposed to be the ultimate anniversary gift. It Is the city’s most exclusive dining experience—a place of velvet banquettes, crystal chandeliers, and a waitlist a year long. But beneath the culinary mystery lies a secret far darker than a ruined meal.

When Mark glimpses a brutal execution in the kitchen that vanishes without a trace by morning, he realizes the restaurant is a front. His wife, Sarah, hasn’t just been traumatized—she has been “processed.” The Gilded Fork is a recruitment center for a secret society known as the Obsidian Circle, using illegal medical experiments to map and rewrite the human mind.

Now, Mark must drag Sarah back from the brink of a corporate conspiracy that controls the city’s media, technology, and government. Together, this husband and wife team transforms from victims into seekers of vigilante justice. To save themselves, they must navigate a terrifying surveillance state where cameras are eyes and algorithms are law.

With the help of a rogue hacker, they launch a desperate cyber warfare campaign to stop the “Phoenix Protocol”—an automated coup designed to enslave the population. In a world of deep state secrets and cyberpunk hacking, an ordinary couple is about to burn the network down.

A high-octane techno-thriller perfect for fans of Dark Matter, The Menu, and Mr. Robot.

This is an interesting and wild techno-thriller story!!
Mark takes his wife, Sarah, to a very fancy restaurant for their anniversary, The Gilded Fork. During dinner he witnesses something that leads him to believe this is not an ordinary restaurant!
This book definitely took turns I was not expecting. There are secrets, conspiracies and crazy government plans.

I was lucky to listen to the audio version and the narrator did an excellent job! The book, along with the narration, made me feel like I was watching an intense movie!! The imagery is very detailed and the story is non-stop action & suspense.

*I recommend the read/listen!*
