Synopsis of Cipher of the Forgotten

The story builds around Mira Donovan, a brilliant but secluded cryptographer, who has spent years trying to forget about her father, Alexander Donovan. He was a mysterious archaeologist who got lost suddenly fifteen years ago, while pursuing what he claimed was “the discovery of a lifetime.” Mira's carefully planned life came to be known when she receives a mysterious letter written in her father’s handwriting. The letter contains a portion of a cipher and a fearful message: Trust no one. Find the Cipher before it’s too late.

Soon after, Mira is confronted by Ethan Kael, a persistent journalist whose brother Sam, who is also an archaeologist, got lost in the same way.

The dust had barely settled as the group trudged away from the ruins of the labyrinth. The landscape around them was wild, with rogged rocks and sparse vegetation stretching into the horizon. 


Mira looked back at the collapsed entrance. “It is out of luck we were able to make it out.” 


Ethan whose arm was bandaged due to injury from the earlier battle, gave a grim nod. “We’re lucky to be alive.” 


Elira, with a pale face, looked at the Cipher now glowing more intensely. “Is it just me, or does that thing feel... different?”
