The Mastermind Alliance: Becoming

De: Rex Lorian

Narrado por: Jon Gerten

A mysterious key. A sinister family legacy. And a secret global organization who will stop at nothing to gain control of both.

They say the smallest keys can unlock the heaviest doors, but on Alex's 16th birthday, the dull metal key waiting in a box outside his foster home wasn't meant for a door—it was the door.

And behind it lay the truth about his father's disappearance and a dangerous legacy tied to the Mastermind Alliance—a dangerous organization that controls the world from the shadows.

Armed with only his key, an AI version of his deceased grandfather, and a brilliant young hacker named Mia, Alex enters the Alliance's world of VR training, cyber conspiracies, and impossible missions.

Only, what they discover in the depths of the Alliance's network turns their blood to ice: a weapon capable of reshaping reality itself.

But to unlock its power, the Alliance needs Alex and his key.

And they will stop at nothing to claim control of them both.
