Terrifying New Book, The Handler, Places Ghost Chip Technology At The Centre

On The Table Read Magazine, “the best book magazine in the UK“, The Handler by Jeffrey S. Stephens is a terrifying thriller about a ghost chip at the heart of a terrorism threat against America.

The Handler

The Handler, Jeffrey Stephens’ most recent high-octane thriller, follows CIA agent Nick Reagan and his team as they become involved in an international search for an unknown terrorist who is planning a series of unholy attacks against the United States.

Reagan is introduced to the reader for the first time as he travels to China in search of the Ghost Chip, a novel technology that transforms mobile phones into detonators and makes them impossible to trace. The Ghost Chip would be disastrous if terrorists had it. Reagan and his partner, Carol Gellos, are given the task of stopping a planned violent assault in New York City after the CIA discovers details of it. Throughout the process, they face challenging odds and danger.

It becomes clear as the events progress that the incident in Manhattan was just the first of a series of planned terrorist attacks on the United States. Worse still, Reagan learns that the perpetrator of this assault is further along in his preparations than the intelligence community anticipated. New technology and information gathered from three American scientists kidnapped in Pakistan are being used to coordinate the plans of the anonymous ISIS handler behind these attacks. Unless Reagan is able to stop him, the outcome will be a horrible fate for thousands of innocent people.

Reagan needs the assistance of his group of talented associates, including his lover, top CIA analyst Erin David, like never before after deciphering the code that the Handler was using to plan his bloody scheme. He must race against time.
