Description
"THE BOOK TO READ BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR!"
The Quantum Grail by J.D. Redvale is a journey like no other. Imagine the intrigue of an emotionally charged search for a family member like Laura Dave’s The Last Thing He Told Me and Harlan Coben’s Run Away; a conspiracy-driven plot and military protagonist of David Baldacci’s The 6:20 Man; and a timely exploration of how technology and humanity could intersect, as in Blake Crouch’s Dark Matter.
Fate forces a Navy SEAL and a convicted hacker into a tenuous alliance, but shared desperation fuels hope in J.D. Redvale’s pulse-pounding novel about found family versus overwhelming odds.
As a former Navy SEAL, John Mitcham knows you can’t always storm your way to victory. Some ops require you to hold fast and remain. So he lives with his losses, steadfastly pulling the weeds from his daughter’s grave.
When his wife disappears, leaving a farewell note that doesn’t ring true, John uncovers a government project that surpasses his comprehension: the Quantum Grail, a mysterious AI weapon, now missing. To track down the Grail and find his wife, John enlists the CIA’s most wanted hacker in return for her freedom.
A virtual Carmen Sandiego, Nia Banks is young, talented, and alone in the world, and her snarky theatrics remind John of the daughter he failed. And this time, he won’t fall short.
But the odds of success drop exponentially as they learn more about the Grail. Nia fears it could predict the future with frightening accuracy. And it seems dead set on engraving their fates in stone.

Tim Y, Reviewer
A fun fast paced read from the author. This story takes a lot of twists and turns. It follows John Mitcham in his search for his estranged wife, partnering him hacker Nia Banks. The two search for John's estranged wife and a "super" quantum computer called the Quantum Grail. The story has unexpected twists and turns and ultimately betrayals.
This is a very fast fun read. You will not want to put down. I look forward to more books by the author.
Wendi F, Reviewer
This is an outstanding, complicated, (hopefully) super-futuristic techno-novel.
Completely engaging from the start, I was focused on what I thought was happening,
to learn that what you see is not at all what is actually taking place. There was a
lot of fascination with the personal relationships of the main characters and the
Author did a masterful job with the evolution of each character, and the
obfuscated roles the people and situations played in the story.
I found myself heavily aligned with a character whom I learned was not
quite what I thought…making this a perfect novel! To wrap it all up, this
book is perfect for suspense with a touch of flubbed players, with a
nice wrap-up as it concludes.
My thanks to Gotham Bookworks via NetGalley, for the download of
this book for review purposes.
