"The storyline was fast-moving, and I found myself unable to turn the pages quickly enough, fearful that I would miss something important." -- Alma Boucher for Readers' Favorite
When crypto entrepreneur Luc Starck receives a mysterious text message promising a solution to his failing company, he agrees to a meeting in Switzerland’s Crypto Valley. He leaves with an envelope labeled “Clue One.” Minutes later, after answering a phone call, he collapses and dies without warning.
At first, it appears to be a tragic natural death. Then the clues begin to surface.
As the investigation intensifies, senior investigator Bernt Berg and his ambitious rookie daughter are pulled into a case that refuses to follow the rules. Each answer leads to more questions. Each clue reveals a deeper layer of deception. And soon they realize they aren’t just trying to catch a killer—
They’re trying to figure out what the crime actually is.
Meanwhile, Duan Ripa, a grieving widower and cryptography expert, begins decoding the private key to Luc’s crypto wallet and uncovers a terrifying truth: Luc’s death was only the beginning. Hidden within encrypted clues is a deadly game already in motion, and the clock is running out.
Set in the real-world crypto capital of Zug, Switzerland, Zero Knowledge is a fast-paced, intelligent thriller filled with cryptography, secrets, revenge, and a mystery that twists until the very last page.
Because sometimes the perfect murder isn’t about hiding the killer… It’s about hiding the crime.
