Why read it?

1 author picked Phrase Seven as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Mind control has long been a fascinating topic for me, and this book fits right in, exploring how a stolen top-secret mind control phrase threatens to ignite global conflict. Because this book was written by ex-intelligence, its nuances of the underbelly of the CIA are written in captivating detail.

I read this book every chance I could and finished it in a week. I recently discovered Chase Hughes wrote a sequel to this book, entitled The Belgrade Archer. I am excited to read it.
