The missile launch happens at dawn.
CIA analyst Samantha Michaels has tracked the threat for months. She knows what the intelligence says. She knows what North Korea’s Supreme Leader is capable of. What she does not know is whether the world has enough time left to stop him. Thousands of miles away, Navy Captain Cassandra Stanley commands a guided missile cruiser in waters that are getting more dangerous by the hour. When a deadly pandemic begins spreading across borders while Kim tests weapons capable of reaching American soil, Cassandra faces a decision that no chain of command can make for her.
Two women. One mission. A world on the edge of Armageddon.
Ripped from today’s headlines and grounded in the hard realities of geopolitical brinkmanship, The Paris Contagion spans continents and command centers to deliver a thriller that does not let go. Bioweapons. Ballistic missiles. A Supreme Leader with nothing left to lose. And two women who refuse to let the world burn.
How close does the world have to come to the edge before someone pulls it
back?
Perfect for readers of Vince Flynn, Brad Thor, and Daniel Silva who are ready for female protagonists who carry the full weight of global stakes.
Reviews
“Unlike Farlow’s book, A Quantum Convergence, that includes inter-dimensional travel and telepathy, this fictional story borders dangerously close to reality. The details of the story and dialog seemed so real I had to keep reminding myself the story wasn’t a documentary of current world events. With highly accurate descriptions and authentic dialog Farlow helps you step into the shoes of the United States military as they decide if, when, and how to take down a menacing leader bent on teaching the world’s big players a lesson in power. To give the reader a respite from the overall gut-wrenching adventure she superbly crafted, Farlow interlaces stories of the personal sides of some of the characters to show their humanity as they battle an inhumane monster.”—An Amazon Review
“Our Future? This book contains all the possible elements that our future could contain! The Author kept me on edge throughout the read! Reminded me of Tom Clancy’s novels.” —A Reader Review
