CORE Series Extras
Code and Cipher Guide

In CORE Deception, a key part of the plot is a coded method of communication used by someone (I won’t say who right now). Think cipher, not computer code. It’s briefly explained in the book so you can follow along without being confused. But wouldn’t you love to learn how the ciphers worked so you could do it yourself? Same with the codes used in Association and CORE Deception?
Warning: This guide assumes you’ve read CORE Deception and Association, or at least don’t mind a few spoilers.
Available as ebook or booklet (4″x7″, 29 pages).
Biblical Insights on Fear:

Forty insights, arranged in no particular order. Read it as you please—straight through, one insight per day, skipping around randomly.

Deleted Scene Set: Interrogation
This sequence of deleted scenes come from an early draft of CORE Deception in which Jhalak brings in Seth and Krystin for questioning. It would have taken place in the first 25% of CORE Deception.
I did a quick cleanup of the pages, but keep in mind they haven’t experienced the same level of polish as a published novel. Some spoilers if you haven’t yet read CORE Deception.

Deleted Scene: Underground Park
This deleted scene comes from one of the earliest drafts of CORE Deception. It takes place in a giant underground park, a setting that didn’t make it into the final version of the novel. Still, it was fun to write, and I think you’ll enjoy reading about Krystin and her siblings. Perhaps you’ll even notice a few aspects that worked their way into CORE Deception or Association.
