Inkshares Stories

Journey, by Mykl Walsh is a short story that leads to the introduction of SecretAgentMan. It was published on December 1, 2015 and is available wherever books are sold. SecretAgentMan™ (aka S-A-M) is an epic work of historical fiction, set primarily in New England from 1955 to the present day. A fictional biography and a novel in progress, it is also nothing less than the culmination of Richard Saunders life's work and passionate hobby. Every chapter in the novel examines one year in the life of Mr. Howard, intermingled with the most significant local, national and international events from that particular year. Mr. Howard is the reincarnation of Albert Einstein and the novel is a vision of what someone with Einstein's intellect and personality would do in today's world. To up the ante and make it even more interesting, the author has added a supernatural element to the story. In addition to all of this, Saunders has created a twist where he has impersonated his protagonist in many real-life situations over the years, even further confusing the line between where the fiction ends and the historical facts begin. Internet sleuths will be able to confirm much of the factual content that has been fictionalized. Real diehard fans will have one more thing to investigate. Hidden somewhere in the pages of Volume I is a Vigenere Cipher that gives up the GPS location of a geocache buried in Southern New Hampshire on public land This hidden vault contains evidence of Saunder's "Great Impostor" escapades, not the least of which is a recording that he accidentally made of his seminal, 1998 meeting with Da Vinci Code author Dan Brown.
