The MK-Ultra Thriller Series
"A non-stop ride through reckless romance and vicious assassins with the lights of Hollywood for a blood-soaked background. Schneider breathes hard-boiled noir, and the novel oozes with classic charm."
In 1979, Glenn is a dedicated chef at the Silver Lake Inn, a restaurant preparing for a visit from the First Lady of the United States. But something is wrong. Glenn begins experiencing blackouts—periods of lost time—during which a violent and dangerous alter ego seems to take control, leaving behind only chaos and confusion.
When he meets Lindsey, a mysterious woman who seems to know more about him than he does himself, Glenn is thrust into a web of conspiracy. Together, they uncover a chilling truth: Glenn is a key figure in Project Monarch, a top-secret government mind control experiment, and his role may be linked to a plot to assassinate the First Lady.
As the clock ticks down to the high-profile visit, Glenn must confront the dark forces within him, unravel the twisted secrets of his past, and find a way to stop the assassination before it's too late. But with the stakes higher than ever, can Glenn and Lindsey escape the shadowy forces of Project Monarch in time to save themselves—and the First Lady?
A tense, gripping thriller full of twists and turns, Broken Monarch explores the fragile boundaries between identity, memory, and control, where every second counts and the truth is more dangerous than anyone could have imagined.
In the shadowy underworld of 1984 Los Angeles, two lives become entwined by a deadly game of survival and revenge.
Glenn is on the run, hunted by the ruthless assassins of the Monarch Program, a covert government operation with deadly reach. With nowhere left to turn, he forms an unlikely alliance with Casey, a struggling dancer at the Hollywood Showcase who's willing to risk everything to raise money for her sister's life-saving surgery. But as Glenn's enemies close in, Casey discovers that the same dark forces threatening him now also threaten her—and she may be the key to his survival.
Bound by their shared desperation and the brutal truths they uncover, Glenn and Casey must navigate a treacherous world of corruption, deception, and bloodshed. The evil they face is far more sinister than they could have imagined, and their only hope lies in each other. But can they trust one another enough to survive the deadly game they've both been pulled into?
In this high-octane thriller, where every choice could be their last, will Glenn and Casey escape the forces closing in on them, or will they become the next victims of a ruthless conspiracy?
