About this audiobook

The latest award-winning book from the author of the acclaimed Bureau Archives Trilogy The bomb changed the world. But the greatest threat of the Cold War was never nuclear war. In 1955, ODI agents Giles Harrington and Lucy Howard investigate a strange incident at Edwards Air Force Base and uncover Decision Locking—a covert technology capable of narrowing human judgment until dissent simply disappears. As the CIA, MI6, and Soviet intelligence battle for control, Giles and Lucy discover the struggle is no longer about nuclear superiority, but who gets to decide the future itself. From California and Washington to London and the frozen shipyards of Murmansk, The Teller Threshold is a gripping Cold War spy-fi thriller of rogue agents, secret technology, and political conspiracy—where the ultimate weapon cannot destroy civilization, but can make everyone agree. The Teller Threshold is the first installment of The Consensus Files.
