Between saving humanity, a childhood friend or your true love, who would you choose?
The future is here…2040 Middle East: Jerusalem, NEOM City and the newly minted Canaan Coast (the former Gaza and West Bank) are high-tech sanctuaries for the world’s trillionaires, guarded by gold-plated security drones and fueled by "petrodollar fuck-you money."
Benjamin Cohen is a gaming prodigy, famous for building virtual worlds that predict the outcomes of global geopolitical conflicts. But Benjamin is more than a genius; he is a living vault. Encoded into his payot (his traditional sidelocks) by his neuroscientist father, is Boomerang: a revolutionary defense system designed to protect the human soul from the ultimate corporate enslavement.
Standing in Boomerang’s way is Leon MX, the Ambassador of United Corporations to Space. Leon has "solved" the global refugee crisis by turning it into a billion-dollar business model, shipping the "displaced" to mining colonies on Mars. To Leon, the human soul is just another digit—and Boomerang is the only firewall standing between him and a total spiritual monopoly.
Luckily, Benjamin never walks alone. At his side?An entourage of dangerous, dazzling women drawn into his orbit—each with powers, pasts, and desires of their own. One of them is Luna, a beautiful and no ordinary Palestinian psychic, specializing in the supernatural. Cabalistic curses? Malevolent spirits? Interdimensional horrors? Luna eats that for breakfast—until she fall in love and lose her psychic power.
Dark magic, wicked intrigue, and sizzling chemistry collide in this fast-paced, spicy sci fi thriller.
