Faith Ijiga, a native of Nigeria, has a few books out there, but her new Ryder Jackson series promises to be something extra special. Codes and ciphers combine with the CIA and terrorist organizations in this fast-paced, can't-put-it-down book. I can't wait to get started.  

The Kanu Cipher by Faith Ijiga

In the heart of Nigeria, an ancient city holds a deadly secret. CIA Agent Ryder "Raven" Jackson, a former Army Ranger with expertise in counter-terrorism and cryptology, is sent to Kano to unravel the mysteries of the elusive terrorist organization, The Kano Brotherhood.

Known for their sophisticated encryption methods, the Brotherhood has evaded detection for years—until now. As Ryder delves deeper into the labyrinth of codes and conspiracies, he uncovers a chilling plot to unleash a catastrophic weapon hidden within the city’s ancient walls, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

With time running out, Ryder discovers an even more shocking truth: the Brotherhood is being manipulated by a rogue CIA operative known only as "Sphinx." Driven by a personal vendetta against the agency, Sphinx has faked his death and is now fueling the Brotherhood's rise to power, using cryptology to conceal a larger, more sinister scheme.

To prevent a global disaster, Ryder must decipher the Kano Cipher, a complex code embedded in ancient Hausa texts, and expose Sphinx’s true intentions. As the world teeters on the brink of chaos, Ryder teams up with the best cryptologist the CIA has, Ava Mitchell. Together, they must navigate treacherous betrayals and fierce battles, racing against time to stop Sphinx and save 1/3 of the world's population. 

Fans of Joel C. Rosenberg, Tom Clancy, Luana Ehrlich, and Terry Toler will find themselves engrossed in this high-stakes international thriller.

Also, if you enjoy the intense action of Jack Carr and the gripping intrigue of Brad Thor, this book is for you. Dive into The Kano Cipher today and experience a pulse-pounding journey that combines rich cultural heritage with high-octane espionage. Will Ryder decode the cipher in time to save billions?

The clock is ticking—don’t miss out on this thrilling adventure!
