show moreDecoded is a mind-bending thriller that challenges everything we thought we knew about history, power, and the untold stories of remarkable women. When investigative journalist Amalia Rose stumbles upon a blog post claiming that the enigmatic Voynich Manuscript holds the key to a lost matriarchal civilization, she embarks on a thrilling journey to unravel the cryptic clues and decipher the manuscript's true meaning.
Partnering with her brilliant but frustrating ex-boyfriend, Bastian Ham, Amalia races from the dusty archives of ancient libraries to cutting-edge ocean research facilities. They follow a trail of breadcrumbs left by historical figures like cryptologist Elizebeth Friedman and author Ethel Voynich, uncovering tantalizing clues about a lost civilization, an ancient wisdom tradition, and a powerful psychedelic elixir.
As they delve deeper, Amalia and Bastian stumble into shocking revelations about the Eleusinian Mysteries, the Antikythera Mechanism, and the suppressed history of powerful women. Aided by the Order of the Nine Realms, a secret society of librarians, they must outwit shady government agents, fanatical cults, and Neo-Nazi conspirators at every turn.
Alternating between Amalia's present-day narrative and glimpses into the ancient past, Decoded explores gender power dynamics, the intersection of science and spirituality, and the enduring search for truth. Real-life luminaries brush shoulders with memorable original characters in a genre-defying narrative that weaves together archaeology, artificial intelligence, and mysticism.
Decoded is a thought-provoking love letter to the unsung heroines of history, raising questions about truth, storytelling, and the importance of preserving marginalized voices. From the streets of New York to the rolling hills of Tuscany and the sun-drenched Greek isles, time is running out—will Amalia and Bastian decipher the code before an ancient wisdom is erased from history forever?

A Note from the Author
Dear Listener, This novel is a work of factual dramatization, a narrative form that blends historical reality with fictional elements to create a compelling story. While inspired by the lives of real individuals and actual events, the characters and their experiences have been reimagined and embellished for dramatic effect.
For readers interested in exploring the many factual underpinnings of this novel, a comprehensive historical timeline and a list of sources are provided at the end of the ebook and physical book. These sections offer a glimpse into the real-world events, people, and documents that served as the inspiration for this work of factual dramatization.
While every effort has been made to remain true to the spirit of the historical record, this novel should be approached as a work of fiction, albeit one that is deeply rooted in the fascinating and often overlooked corners of our shared past.
My pen name is Amalia Rose, and this is my story. It's a tale of hope and heartbreak, of daring and discovery, and of the unbreakable bond between those who seek the truth. I may not have all the answers, but I've learned that sometimes, the only way to find them is to take a leap of faith and trust in the journey.
So, are you ready to join me?
Amalia Rose
