At what point is deception ethical?

As the Ukraine and Israeli wars continue to rage, a timely thriller emerges that proposes a solution so imaginative readers will wish it wasn’t a work of fiction.

With the Mideast on the brink of nuclear catastrophe, weapons scientist Ryan Cobran and billionaire Sheikh Hamel Yasir conspire to rid the world of war – all war – now and forever. Cobran hopes to redeem himself for killing thousands. Yasir is desperate to right a tragedy his family unleashed years ago.

Cobran recruits the planet’s most brilliant scientific minds, secretly develops advanced technologies the world has never known, and deploys them in a series of events so unfathomable that humanity can only understand them as miracles. Among them are a massive forest fire threatening thousands that inexplicably dies out in seconds and a monster tsunami that completely dissipates just before wiping out cities up and down the West Coast of the United States.

The scientists then give these miraculous events meaning by projecting identical visions onto hundreds of key political and religious leaders worldwide, each believing God has ordered them to obey His commandment:

“Humankind, I have made myself known through my miracles. Cease all warfare now and forever, or be eradicated from my Earth.”

But the entire operation is jeopardized when the technology starts to fail. As Yasir’s sanity unravels, he hurls death threats at the team, making it clear he’ll go to any length to ensure the project’s success. Meanwhile, investigative journalist Paul Andrews has discovered the conspiracy and has every intention of exposing this global deception.

And that leaves Ryan Cobran to navigate a minefield of risk and ethics to achieve something unattainable for thousands of years: everlasting peace.
