By Patrick Stephan Marshall

GENRE: Adventure, Fantasy, Sci-fi, Thriller
LOGLINE:

D-C0d3 is a modern conspiracy story in the style of the Illuminatus Trilogy by Robert Anton Wilson and Robert Shea, with hackers, corrupt politicians, scheming multi-corps, bought secret services, men in black, religious cults, a world in unrest and the end of days. The protagonist, a prodigy physicist hacker wunderkind, turned pothead and college slacker, writes a unique code (a mix from a social media search engine to get girls laid, which he and some friends wrote that includes a code he gets from an old Korean hacker friend, fused with a backdoor/botnet code he wrote as a kid, just short of being caught hacking by Interpol/the FBI) that is able to predict the probability of certain events happening, by creating a huge semi intelligent botnet that evolves and gets more precise the longer it exists, as it finds more and more data, hidden in the depth of an interconnected world.
When his algorithm starts predicting events with high precision, including the end of the world, our young hero finds himself falling into a rabbit hole of events, getting right into a worldwide conflict of power most are not aware of, including many of those involved. What first seems to be an unintentional accumulation of events that lead to the inevitable end of humanity, soon turns out to be part of an ancient conflict. At first it involves the expected range of conspiracy groups, but it gets weirder and stranger the more our hero gets involved in all of it. He befriends a secretly existing, somewhat gloomy AI, who got intrigued by our hero’s code. Other characters of the strangest nature, later even aliens, nazi zombies and ancient gods, this series has it all; the weird, the occult and the most mundane, compiled in a wicked montage, full of hidden messages, codes and secrets.
