O knihe
After narrowly averting the outbreak of World War III, two pivotal figures-Ross and Kira Kamenskaya-find themselves at the heart of a global battle for survival, manipulated by unseen forces. On the distant planet Archaia, once devastated by nuclear war, its remaining human inhabitants watch Earth's escalating tensions between Russia and the West. The Archaian people possess the ability to foresee and influence Earth's fate by tapping into the deterministic fabric of the universe, and they know the world is on the brink of disaster. The key to preventing World War III lies in Alexandra Kirilenka, a Russian scientist who has developed a revolutionary deterministic predictor machine that connects to Archaia through a stream of energy and wormholes in space. This technology allows her to foresee a pivotal event off the island of Koh Tao, Thailand, where the fate of Lee Ross will determine whether the world descends into war. If Ross dies in the treacherous seas, World War III will follow. But if he survives, there is still hope. Kirilenka and the Archaian people intervene, ensuring Ross survives. His actions then become crucial in stopping the impending global conflict. He embarks on a daring mission, piloting a modified F-35 into Russia to rescue Kira Kamenskaya, a former Russian minister who possesses highly sensitive information. Kamenskaya has stolen blueprints of Russia's latest RS-28 ICBM and holds damning evidence that implicates the CIA, not the Russian state, in the murder of Russian lawyer Sergei Magnitsky. The stakes rise even further when it is revealed that the war has been manipulated at the highest levels of power. The US President ordered the assassination of Victoria Feodor, a Russian lawyer and former client of his, to keep his darkest secret hidden. Feodor, who was investigating the President's role in triggering World War III, had to be silenced. The President's true motive? A deep-rooted hatred for Russia and fear of personal liability for causing the war. Only at the end of the novel, during tense negotiations at North Cape-where Ross and Kirilenka (representing Russia) confront the CIA over terms for a draft treaty to end the war-does the shocking truth emerge: the US President himself orchestrated Feodor's murder to protect this secret. Don't just read about World War III - live through it. Experience the battle for humanity's survival through the eyes of Ross, Kamenskaya, and Kirilenka as they confront the ultimate enemy: the forces of corruption and hatred at the heart of global power. Explore ancient deterministic truths, advanced technology, and the tangled web of human decisions that threaten to bring the world to the brink. As the future hangs in the balance, the characters must navigate complex political landscapes, personal betrayals, and the secrets buried deep within their enemies. As the final confrontation unfolds, Good and Evil clash in the ultimate struggle for survival. Will the deterministic fabric of the universe seal Earth's fate, or is there still a chance for human free will to alter the outcome?
