    Former child detective Charlotte “Lottie” Illes is all grown up and going back to school in this fresh, delightfully modern mystery in the Not a Detective series, based on the much-loved TikTok web series.  
 
Mention “returning to the scene of a crime,” and people don’t usually picture a middle school. But that’s where kid detective Lottie Illes enjoyed some of her greatest successes, solving mysteries and winning acclaim—before the world of adult responsibilities came crashing in … 
 
Twentysomething Charlotte is now back in the classroom, this time as a substitute teacher. However, as much as she’s tried to escape the shadow of her younger self, others haven’t forgotten about Lottie. In fact, a fellow teacher is hoping for help discovering the culprit behind anonymous  
threats being sent to her and her aunt, who’s running for reelection to the Board of Education.  
 
At first, Charlotte assumes the messages are a harmless prank. But maybe it’s a good thing she left a detective kit hidden in the band room storage closet all those years ago—just in case. Because the threats are escalating, and it’s clear that untangling mysteries isn’t child’s play anymore … 
 
“Charlotte Illes may not be a detective, or a teacher, but she is an absolute delight.”—Kemper Donovan, author of The Busy Body

    ZOROGIGI: The Spiral Protocol is a high-stakes geopolitical techno-thriller about intelligence, pattern recognition, and the hidden systems that shape modern conflict. 
When terrorist attacks begin unfolding across the San Francisco Bay Area exactly as they were predicted online, federal investigators believe they have found their prime suspect. The mysterious analyst posting these warnings uses the name Zorogigi, and her messages appear hours before explosions, sabotage attempts, and cyber disruptions strike critical infrastructure. 
But Zorogigi is not a terrorist. 
She is a former military intelligence prodigy turned software engineer whose mind is uniquely wired to detect patterns buried inside complex systems — financial markets, cyber networks, transportation infrastructure, and global power struggles. 
As attacks escalate in a terrifying spiral from ports to power grids to transit systems, Zorogigi becomes the only person capable of understanding the sequence before the next disaster strikes. But each warning she releases saves lives while placing her deeper in danger. 
Now hunted by federal agents who believe she may be involved and targeted by an Iranian terror cell determined to silence her, Zorogigi must stay one step ahead of both sides while confronting the violent pattern she alone understands. 
Blending suspense, technology, and global intrigue, ZOROGIGI: The Spiral Protocol introduces a thrilling new heroine in the world of geopolitical fiction. 
This audiobook is written and narrated by Gigi Bird and is the first installment in the Zorogigi series.
