Genesis Series

PROJECT RM: GENESIS (The origin story of Project RM)

Joseph Solomon is just your average 16-year-old genius. His biggest problems are lab experiments and how to get the attention of the girl in his class--but it's 1962, and things are about to change.

The Soviets have placed nuclear missiles in Cuba, 100 miles from Florida. The president’s address to the nation triggers a superpower showdown that, at any moment, could extinguish humanity. Suddenly, Joseph finds himself kidnapped and part of a larger plot to unseat America's strength, in a parallel plot that will push him to his very limits as he fights for survival and the fate of humanity.

Can Joseph overcome his paralysis around beauty Laurel Lyons and escape? Failure could prove disastrous. Success might usher in a new Renaissance.

PROJECT RM: THE CODE

Rescue or another abduction. Will Joseph or Laurel break under intense interrogation? How quickly can Joseph adapt to the spy world? Will they help prevent a nuclear holocaust?

With his passion for the past, our Poppa greatly influenced Project RM. To honor him, here is our dedication in The Code - To Herbert “Whitey” Eckstein, a man who understood the importance of history.

PROJECT RM: INTELLIGENCE

Project RM is born. First mission, locate the other geniuses. First obstacles, the FBI, the CIA, and possibly his new team members--a leader he didn't expect and a girlfriend to whom he did not listen. Unless Joseph can clear these hurdles and master the intelligence business, their secret agency will fail.

PROJECT RM: MISSION RM

Blindsided by betrayal on his first mission, can Joseph regroup and work with Laurel to save the many prodigies the KGB has kidnapped? Failure means a life of slavery for most and, for Joseph and Laurel, torture--maybe even death. Success means a strong core to ignite Project RM.

PROJECT RM: RIVALRY

In an immense, secret West Virginia bomb shelter meant to preserve a working government after a nuclear blast, Joseph Solomon stares at his future. He, Laurel Lyons, and Director Nick McKenzie, face 18 other geniuses--some of the most intelligent people on the planet. Can Joseph convince those polymaths to become RMs? What will happen if any of them says, "No"? Of the group, who might rise to rival our hero?

PROJECT RM: LAST CELL

Forced out into the cold night at gunpoint, Joseph is sent on a mission to save the 20th genius from the Soviets. In his way stands a small army intent on killing him. With Laurel and his friends trapped at the RM headquarters, Joseph is on his own. He has no weapons and no idea what lies ahead. What does he know? If he doesn't kill everyone in his way, he won't survive.

PROJECT RM: INCURSION

Joseph survived death and destruction in New York. He's never been closer to realizing his dream with Laurel by his side. To do so, they must invade their underground bunker in West Virginia and take on their rival and his guards. Will Laurel and all of the RMs survive? The outcome of their incursion will shape the future of Project RM.
