Synopsis

Excerpts from the Book

Prologue
The decade before the millennium has been one of revelations on many fronts of technology, but perhaps none leave us pondering our future more than the two mentioned in these pages.

In July 1995 the CIA declassified, and released documents disclosing its support of research in parapsychology, which covered a period from the 70's up to 1993. On the Nightline TV program aired on 28 November 1995 a mysterious person reported to have been from the CIA discussed their research. The research dealt with a discipline called Remote Viewing. Although seemingly too incredible and too enigmatic for any self-respecting government to acknowledge, the implications point to potentially paradigm shattering changes in conventional intelligence and military security strategy.

When irreverent Navy intelligence officer, Zack Hawkshaw, reluctantly agrees to use skills from an extinct CIA program for a mission, he has no idea he’ll be plunged into a race to save the world. Zack, a former Navy Seal, has been working at the CIA presumably because of his expertise on the Middle East. He has a caustic relationship with his bureaucrat boss. In an explosive meeting, his boss confesses the surreptitious reason Zack was moved from the Office of Naval Intelligence at the bequest of General Whitcomb. Whitcomb is interested in all his classified CIA work in a closed-out remote psychic viewing program. Despite the friction, his boss draws upon Zack’s patriotic weakness, persuading him to make a trip to gather intelligence on the movement of a large amount of gold and a flurry of activity at the Ukrainian border south of a Russian missile base. From his contact in Turkey, Zack learns he is facing the Chechen Muslim and ex-KGB agent, Usman Boshni, who possesses unbelievable psychic remote viewing shills. He also learns Boshni has assumed the struggle of bringing forth the Twelfth Imam through the destruction of the world. It is then Zack decides the only way he can gather critical information on the threat to the U.S. is to use his own psychic remote viewing ability, something he promised himself he would never do again, since the time he saw his own death. Zack psychically sees nuclear missile warheads being prepared for clandestine shipping. Fearing for the life of his girlfriend and his country, Zack confronts Boshni in the psychic remote perception battlefield as he had done earlier in the CIA program against the Russian psychotronic spies. The clock enters a countdown to destruction with Zack feverishly working with General Whitcomb to locate warheads shipped around the globe. In the final minutes, Zack locates the nuclear warhead outside Washington, D.C. and because of his Seal training insists on taking the responsibility of destroying the warhead before it explodes.
