Who is the focal point? Who is this unlikely man? Who is this behind-the-desk analytical type, who's become intolerable to a number of lethal characters, ranging from a small-town politician, an American president, and a sociopathic world leader? Extortion, revenge, power, and mayhem, along with their motivating forces, drive protagonists and antagonists alike. Why? STONES answers the questions above in a fast paced, roller-coaster read to be enjoyed by fans of thrills and intrigues, from first page to last.

Former CIA operative Magus Crayle must defeat the deployment of nuclear weapons to prevent the overthrow of several governments via his masterful Blackstone Strategy. The ultra-secret Illuminé society employed Crayle's strategy to transform China into an empire headed by Hong Kong finance mogul Chin Yao-wu. In return, Chin supplied the Illuminé's Elder with miniaturized nuclear devices. In pursuit of his own global conquest, the Elder orchestrates the actions of his most successful mole, Pope Innocent, along with his very own rogue CIA daughter, Pattie Norbrunn. Despite the support of the American president, Crayle and his eclectic team are stretched to the limit as they deal with catastrophic events in Hong Kong, China, Europe, and the USA. To stop the madness, Crayle must destroy the Illuminé's Elder, Pope Innocent, Pattie Norbrunn, and the elusive Mitim, who masquerades as a modern version of The Man In The Iron Mask. In Book 5 of his Thriller Series, author Dennis Bowen accelerates the pace to blunt the reordering of the global political landscape. For pretenders, this is the final pretense. For actors on the world stage, the final act. And for those who practice deceit, The Final Masquerade.

At risk: tens of thousands of innocent people. Crayle and his team must overcome Lalumière's CIA support and unmask the Illuminé leader known only as the Elder. Along the way, recovering amnesiac Crayle discovers new facts about himself.

A violent car crash on California's PCH. A plot to achieve world domination. A nuclear arms-seeking Iran. At the heart of this conspiracy is amnesiac Magus Crayle. Crayle becomes the subject in a classified memory-recovery project managed by an off-the-books government agent. Assigned to protect Crayle and stimulate his memory are an FBI agent with baggage and a P.I. with an agenda. Attempts on Crayle's life begin. The threat escalates. Nothing is what it seems. Assassins chase Crayle and the P.I. from their mountain sanctuary. Crayle is shocked by his ability to employ car racing and martial arts skills. The ante has been raised - more people will die. Crayle confronts his government handler. A call to Langley, Virginia provides direction. A jet is made available. Crayle and the P.I. depart for the Far East. His first target: Hong Kong stock mogul Chin Yao-wu, a charismatic, sexually deviant megalomaniac who reveals under duress details of their shared past. Another assassination attempt occurs, aligning Crayle with the most seductive of Chin's lethal "daughters". Chin's intel leads Crayle to Strasbourg, France, a second conspirator, Sylvain Lalumiere, and his small army. The Frenchman views Crayle as a threat - to his plans of conquest and to his life. Few truths emerge. Answers beget questions. Crayle remains confused by his dominant placement in foreign crosshairs. Magus Crayle must reclaim his life, his memories, and his identity even as he struggles to survive.

The global geopolitical scene has experienced secret societies before. But never an ultra-secret, mega-violent organization such as the French founded Illuminé. Its leaders cast themselves as enlightened and necessary to control the governance of all peoples. They utilize mini-nuclear weapons to that end. Can the Crayle team stop them?
