Your mission, should you choose to accept it
A thriller you read. A game that calls you back.
From the Angel of Hope novels by Ramon Geronimo: an undercover unit that recruits ordinary people — over a real phone call — into a war hidden in plain sight. Read the books. Find a blue card. Answer.
“No matter how potent those substances may be, it’s a fact — love is the most potent drug of all.”
Capture Narcos · Angel of Hope I
The novels
Available now
Juan wakes from a two-month coma with a broken memory and one certainty: somewhere out there is a woman he failed to protect. The DEA’s secret weapon becomes a honeypot for the battered wives of narco elites — chasing “The Black Widow” through seduction, wit, and war, to the founding of a covert unit that recruits people like you.

Book II
Juan walks into the cartel on purpose. His brother Ray — a doctor, not a spy — must become one anyway. Coded poems, an audio tooth, a face that isn’t the face they’re hunting, and a love that refuses to stay dead. The war goes to the Dominican Republic — and the Angel of Death is waiting.
Get notified at launchThe transmedia game
No screens between you and the fiction. A card appears — on a desk, by a register, under a tray. You call the number. A voice answers. From that moment, every lunch is a mission, every menu item a codeword, and every restaurant a safe house in a war between two networks.
The Blue Card
Become the agent nobody suspects. Observe. Report. Decode the poems. Intercept the shipments. Protect your identity — a ghost who gets named gets burned.
The Black Card
Run the routes. Wash the money. Buy the plaza and make it the busiest corner in the city. When the raid comes — and it comes — you’d better afford the lawyer.
Find a card
Or be found. The Network decides.
Make the call
A real voice vets you, names you, arms you with a codeword.
Live the mission
In the real world, one meal at a time. Tell no one.
“Capture Narcos is a true transmedia marvel — get hooked on the book, then step inside it.”
For brands & sponsors
Every mission in Capture Narcos maps to a legitimate, measurable guest action — a verified visit, a menu item tasted, a store experience reported, a promotion shared. The game is an engagement layer; underneath it runs a consented, pseudonymous, first-party data engine for the sponsor’s analytics teams.
Thousands of verified-visit, structured guest-experience reports per week — disguised as spy field reports.
The codeword is a menu item. Queue a SKU; agents order it, taste it, and get debriefed within days. Stockouts surface in hours.
Missions route players to chosen stores, off-peak dayparts, and cross-brand store-hopping trails.
Empire players earn from real foot traffic at stores they digitally own — so they promote your locations relentlessly.
The cause behind the story
The Angel of Hope was written to give a voice to victims of domestic violence — and its author, a survivor himself, founded Rising To The Top to help young athletes earn scholarships. Part of the proceeds of Capture Narcos supports both missions.
