A high-concept political techno-thriller where quantum physics, geopolitical chess, and a lifetime of forbidden love collide.
THE WORLD WATCHED THEM FALL. NOW, THE HEAVENS WILL WATCH THEM RISE.
In 1991, the ashes of Vukovar buried a generation of dreams. Robert vanished, spirited across borders in a desperate sacrifice orchestrated by best friends turned bitter enemies. Hana grew up in the ruins, carrying the ghost of the boy she lost while building an empire of precision engineering from the ground up.
Three decades later, Robert has returned as John Steiner-a reclusive tech titan armed with a quantum-kinetic grid capable of altering reality itself. Together with Hana and a brilliant political strategist, they are launching +38: a synchronized, underground movement designed to sweep through the former republics and birth a sovereign, technologically untouchable sanctuary of peace: The New Yugoslavia.
Their opening move? Carving a luminous, permanent peace sign across the face of the Moon, rendering Washington, Moscow, and Beijing obsolete in a single, breathless night.
As the Global South rallies behind them and Western intelligence launches desperate, last-ditch black-ops strikes to stop the awakening, John and Hana must navigate a high-stakes labyrinth of international espionage, parliamentary showdowns, and old ghosts. But as history cracks open, they may just find that the most powerful force in the universe isn't quantum energy-it's the unbreakable pull of home.
What Readers Will Find Inside:Mind-Bending Techno-Thriller Elements: Quantum containment arrays, unjammable encryption, and orbital kinetic displays that will change the face of the night sky.
High-Stakes Geopolitical Intrigue: A gripping chess match between the +38 political uprising and a cornered White House desperately trying to maintain hegemony.
An Epic Second-Chance Romance: A deeply emotional, thirty-five-year-long reunion fueled by survival, forgiveness, and a love that outlasted an empire.
Rich, Atmospheric Settings: From the high-tech bunkers of Lika and the glittering waterfalls of Jajce to the reconstructed streets of Vukovar and the corridors of power in Zagreb.
