The next standalone installment of the #1 international bestselling "Da Vinci Code meets Tomb Raider" VanOps thriller series is a heart-stopping story of spies, lies, and family ties.

HONORABLE MENTION - SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA BOOK AWARDS
GLOBAL THRILLER FINALIST - JUNE 2022 CHANTICLEER INTERNATIONAL BOOK AWARDS

Sixteenth-century French prophet Nostradamus predicted the Great Fire of London, Napoleon's conquest, Hitler's rule, and the atomic bomb. Can the VanOps team keep the old seer's secrets out of blood-stained hands?

Aikido black belt Maddy Marshall is celebrating the completion of her black ops training when news of a military takeover in the South China Sea shocks the world because it was predicted by a sixteen-year-old French student. When intel chatter spells danger to Avril, the young seer, VanOps Director Bowman assigns Marshall and her twin brother, Will Argones, to protect the girl.
Emotions between the siblings are running hot due to their aunt's recent stroke, which has reminded them of the childhood accident that scarred both his chin and her heart. Tensions ratchet higher when they arrive at Avril's home to find the instant social media star has been kidnapped, leaving them with only clenched fists and cryptic clues that lead to a formula encoded on an etched-bronze medallion.
While Taiwan fears an invasion that will set off an apocalyptic chain of events, Marshall and Argones race through medieval French towns, Italian cathedrals, and ancient Greek temples attempting to find Avril before their enemies use the girl to discover the Holy Grail of military intelligence. If the team fails, they won't need a crystal ball to know millions of innocent souls will be destined to join Nostradamus in the afterlife.
The Doomsday Medallion is an electrifying, globe-trotting thriller that delves into humankind's timeless fascination with prophecy and illuminates the mesmerizing and dangerous potential of a weaponized oracle.
Fans of Dan Brown, Steve Berry, and James Rollins will get an adrenaline rush turning the pages of this standalone thriller.

This was a fun action packed thriller! The author did a great job blending so many different backgrounds and elements. Science, history, and traditions, with a touch of sci-fi and anime. I haven't read the other books in the series but I didn't feel like I was missing anything. The characters Maddie, Bear and Will are wonderful! Great read!

Thank you Blackthorn Book Tours and Avanti Centrae for sharing this book with me!

The publisher's blurb is pretty good for an intro, and no spoilers here. An amazing read!
The ongoing characters are back and working twice as hard to achieve their goals. This time they are protecting a current day descendant of Nostradamus who has clearly demonstrated a facility for prophecy/predictions and posted them on TikTok.
Not only are the descriptions spot on, but the author's world class imagination brilliantly conveys everything there is to see and feel in this complex and unpredictable thriller!
I read the first two VanOps in 2019 and 2020 and loved them, but I did not reread in prep for this one, so I think that it probably does work for stand-alone.
I requested and received a free e-book copy from Thunder Creek Press/Independent Book Publishers Association (IBPA) via NetGalley. ( )
