The Statue Protocol

A murdered diplomat. A hidden network. A conspiracy reaching the highest levels of power. When French diplomatic attaché Mathieu Fournier is found murdered in New Orleans, Captain Cyrus "CG" Greene of the Homicide Response Command is assigned what appears to be a routine international investigation. It quickly becomes anything but. Partnering with French intelligence officer Sofia Haddad, Greene follows a trail of evidence from Louisiana to Washington, D.C., Paris, and beyond. Every lead uncovers another deception. Witnesses vanish. Evidence disappears. Powerful people seem determined to keep the truth buried. As Greene and Haddad close in, they discover they are no longer hunting a killer, they are unraveling a covert network that has operated in the shadows for years, protected by wealth, influence, and absolute loyalty. Every answer raises a more dangerous question, and every breakthrough places another target on their backs. With enemies hidden behind respected institutions and allies becoming harder to trust, Greene must risk everything to expose a conspiracy capable of reaching into the highest levels of government before its architects disappear forever. But as the investigation races toward its conclusion, Greene realizes the greatest danger isn't the people he can see, it's the ones who have remained invisible all along. The Statue Protocol is an international political thriller blending murder investigation, espionage, and relentless suspense into a story where justice is never guaranteed... and power protects its own. Some conspiracies are built in secret. Others stand in plain sight.
