Who controls our destiny in a data-driven world?
In the not-so-distant future, the world is drowning in an ocean of data. Every click, every purchase, every heartbeat monitored by a wearable device contributes to an ever-expanding digital universe. Amidst this chaos, a sinister force is at work, threatening to steal the very essence of our future.
Gretchen, a mathematical prodigy and the spoiled heiress, has harnessed the power of supercomputers and Big Data to bend the world’s economic landscape. As a direct descendant of the infamous Nazi Werewolf Clan, Gretchen is driven by a dark legacy and an insatiable desire to control the future. Her brilliant mind crafted dynamic algorithms infused with ethical nihilism, manipulating lives and markets with chilling precision. Gretchen is not operating alone. The R-Group, cybersecurity experts, and data analysts are tasked with uncovering and neutralizing the massive processing power behind Gretchen's schemes. Led by a cast of brilliant and eccentric characters, the R-Group must navigate a labyrinth of digital intrigue and deception to stay one step ahead of their adversaries.
Using their AI-enhanced supercomputer, ICABOD, the R-Group delves deeper into the world of advanced analytics. The team begins to question the very nature of its mission. Who are the real winners in a world where the Darknet holds the keys to the future? Can they trust their analysis, or are they being manipulated by forces beyond their control?
In The Enigma Stolen, Breakfield and Burkey weave a gripping tale of technology, power, and the human spirit. As the lines between hero and villain blur, listeners are left to ponder the ethical implications of a world where data is king and the future is up for grabs. With heart-pounding action and mind-bending twists, this technothriller will keep you on the edge of your seat, questioning the very fabric of reality.

Burkey and Breakfield have taken a unique cast of characters and grown them into ones we, as listeners, care about. We see into their everyday lives, into the nitty gritty as well as the exciting work they do. True storytellers who weave realistic characters into the captivating story plot.
One can only laugh at the sparing between Quip and ICABOD (the Immersive Collaborative Associate Binary Override Deterministic system is hilarious! As ICABOD learns humor and connects with other supercomputers, he forms an alliance complete with a Wednesday night poker game!
This is not a complicated techno-thriller audiobook – the authors, Burkey and Breakfield, keep it clear and understandable while also exciting. The plot is nail-biting, edge of your seat. We are given new characters and some returning characters. At the end, there is a major character twist that will leave the listener in shock. At least I didn’t see it ever coming!
Derek Shoales, the narrator, performs the book perfectly! While his female voices are not female, they are distinct enough to know who is speaking. His voice has a calm, soothing tone. He projects the characters feelings – whether shock, amusement or pain – very well. I enjoy listening to him.
