They say that Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) will be the destruction of mankind. The complete extermination of civilization... But what if one invention can have the same results? Even more devastating than A.I.!
What if someone invents the means of 'teleportation'? 'Beam Me Up' in real life... No more planes to travel in, just teleport to place you want to go... another city, another state, to the mountains our to your favorite beach in Fiji, anywhere... No more cars to drive to the grocery store, your groceries would be teleported to you. Place your order and wham, there are your groceries sitting on the kitchen counter ready to be put away.
No more Federal Express or UPS or even the postal service.. all packages and mail can be teleported to you. You can send your Christmas present to Grandma in Wichita in seconds. What devastation would ensue! 85% of the workforce would become unemployed. A complete collapse of the world system would create global chaos.
Think of the military use for teleportation? Bombs could be sent to the headquarters of world leaders. Assassins would be teleported to the offices or homes of targeted victims.
Garret Strong, Navel Scientist in Quantum Physics has discovered the means of teleportation. He holds the key to the most destructive invention mankind has ever developed. More devastating than knowing the codes to the atomic arsenal... and more powerful than all financial institutions put together....
What will Garret do with his new invention and what will others do to try and steal his invention for personal gain and wealth beyond comprehension? One of the most sinister underworld drug lords wants Garret's invention along with the CIA, KGB, and the Chinese.
Senior Rodriguez, the leader of the Sinaloa drug cartel, could ship tons and tons of drugs every day around the world making him billions of dollars daily. His drugs would be undetected if he had Garret's teleportation system. The Russians, Chinese, and other foreign countries could use teleportation as military weapons and the use of global extortion. Currency confiscation of dirty money laundering would be a thing of the past.
Follow Garret from the beginning of his experimentations through his trials and tribulations to the completion of the world's first teleportation system.
