And sometimes it is simply deadly . . .

Drawn to these sites by a murder, ex-Secret Service agent Sean King encounters a dark world of mathematicians, codes, and spies.

“Brick reads in his usual crisp, dramatic manner, although he reveals his softer side when he changes pitch and tone while reading passages that explore Michelle’s mental instability and Sean’s deep concern for her. He seems invested in the plot, almost as if he cares about the outcome. Brick injects personality into the protagonists, whose strengths and weaknesses complement one another.”

“There’s nothing simple about Simple Genius, a complicated novel involving murder, geniuses, and the CIA…Scott Brick captures the excitement of this thriller with his unique pacing and style, which are perfect here. Brick even manages to sound somewhat feminine when he needs to be, and his voice for the Southern black gentleman is classic…There’s a lot of heart in this work.”
