The Grey Protocol In the Shadow of a Father Years after the world-changing sacrifice of Elliot Grey, his gifted son Jared Grey is raised under a cloud of secrecy and protection. Hidden away from prying government eyes, Jared is encouraged by his mother Olivia to explore the depths of his scientific potential. But as he approaches adulthood, the truth behind his father’s legacy and a hidden set of experimental plans begin to unravel a far bigger mystery—one that could solve the world’s energy crisis or lead to its total destruction. With the aid of his sharp-witted and equally brilliant schoolmate Samantha, Jared uncovers secrets buried in the past—including a hidden Desert lab, a mysterious AI tied to Elliot’s consciousness, and a conspiracy that stretches across governments and generations. As they race against time to perfect cold fusion and release it to the world, Jared must confront betrayal, grief, and the growing weight of his father’s shadow. But some legacies are meant to be rewritten. And some sacrifices never truly end.
