Cognitive Breach - Mark P.J. Nadon

A terrorist bomb. A brilliant scientist. And the classified technology that can extract secrets from dreams.

When the Department of Homeland Security raids a suspected terrorist cell, they capture Dr. Lena Kurov-an AI architect whose innovations harbor deadly potential. After investigators fail to break her silence, the team behind Genesis, a breakthrough PTSD treatment system, offers a radical alternative: using their nightmare-altering technology to extract information from her dreams.

For Captain David Guarnere, leading the Genesis mission means navigating both tactical and psychological warfare. As he infiltrates Kurov's dreams, he uncovers a deadly conspiracy involving AI weapons and the mysterious Prometheus Guild. But his growing connection to Kurov threatens everything.

The clock is ticking. Thousands of lives hang in the balance. And in the battlefield of dreams, empathy might be the deadliest weapon of all.
