A suitcase sized nuclear weapon has exploded in the heart of a major city.
The device was never intended to be detonated, but the hundred thousand dead and injured are the unfortunates that must pay the price for Suvarov’s fail-safe decision. Although the consequences of this last resort reaction will reach far and wide, the immense collateral damage of that detonation would have been nothing if the existence of a nuclear superpower codenamed Red Mercury was allowed to be unveiled to the public.
With a history spanning all the way back to the tensions of the cold war, an unrelenting nuclear race has resulted in a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse in the present day that threatens all of civilization. But as state intelligence agencies battle between themselves and corrupt businesses begin to blur the line between self-serving governments and capital industry, ideological extremism starts to spread like wildfire, resulting in a volatile cocktail that would provide the perfect opportunity for an imminent enemy strike. With anti-terrorism teams across the globe on high alert, the persevering shortcomings of the last few decades have all inevitably culminated in the Paracelsus legacy.
Spanning decades of constant military backstabbing, espionage and close-calls that the general population can never be made aware of, author James Powton’s Paracelsus promises to be one of the most intense tales of military intrigue in recent years. From the cold-war right up to the recent military strikes of the present day, the Paracelsus Legacy has been decades in the making.
