This is from the first episode of the audio series Tanis, and exactly what I'm looking for:
I'm talking about the Freemasons, the Templars, the Illuminati, and the Doukhobors. About the deep web, Tor browsers, and black sites. I'm talking about old VHS tapes passed from college dorms to conspiracy nuts in brown paper bags. Notes, surreptitiously left in old phone books, and stories told over decades via classified ads. I'm talking about whispers in the dark, standing next to a stranger waiting for a subway train in the middle of the night.
Tanis and Terry Miles's other work (and books) in the Rabbits series are great, but don't have any real conclusions or follow through.
I've read Eco's Foucault's Pendulum.
Maybe something like Dan Brown but with less historic inaccuracies.
Also not really looking for "The Illuminatus! Trilogy"
and something more like a modern day scavenger hunt.
