“Banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies.”
— Thomas Jefferson, 1816
It’s 2027. The AI revolution has merged with quantum computing to take control of global financial markets. Operated by the mysterious Bank for International Settlements based in Basel, Switzerland, the quantum supercomputer known as ICARUS has promised the world a more stable economy, devoid of bank failures and volatile share prices. And it has delivered…until now.
Rory O’Connor is the financial genius who helped create ICARUS, but after the tragic death of his best friend, he’s checked out of high finance and into a luxury Caribbean condo, trading cryptocurrencies on the shores of San Juan.
When the stock market starts manifesting erratic behavior, what begins as a favor drags Rory into a dangerous labyrinth of deceit and international intrigue. Leaders at some of the world’s most powerful central banks are planning to take down the US dollar as global reserve currency, replacing it with a gold- and silver-backed digital currency of their own.
Now, Rory must travel to Switzerland, overcome his demons, and save the world from financial chaos. Everything is on the line. If he fails, humanity descends into an economic Armageddon controlled by madmen and psychopathic bankers.
“Thriller readers with any interest in finance need to read Quoz!…Perfect for fans of Michael Lewis and Jack Carr. Mattison…brings fiction and finance together in a way few writers can. You won’t be able to put Quoz down!” —Massimo Paone, Former Chief Investment Officer, Populist Capital
From Quoz:
“According to official statistics, the largest holder of gold in the world is the United States at over eight thousand metric tons. However, according to unofficial calculations, China holds not the two thousand tons publicly reported but closer to thirty-two thousand tons. As of 2007, China has replaced South Africa as the world’s largest producer of gold. Gold is the traditional way to preserve wealth in India. Citizens of the subcontinent hold an estimated twenty-five thousand tons of the yellow metal, over three times the amount held in reserve by the United States. De-dollarization is a key policy of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation. Since the country’s 2014 annexation of Crimea, its central bank has been on a massive gold-buying spree. Russia’s true holdings are unknown.”
