THE PEACE DEAL OF THE CENTURY
A Novel of Grave Concern - How Six Delegations, One Shrimp Platter, and a Missing Key Nearly Ended the World

The world is four days from war. Nobody wants it. Everybody's too busy to stop it.

When a naval incident in the Strait of Hormuz pushes a fading American president and an aging Iranian theocracy to the brink, the fate of the free world comes down to: a seating chart nobody can agree on, a live microphone that catches two oil-rich monarchs arguing about shrimp quality, a mistranslated verb that nearly starts a war on its own, and a ceremonial door with a key that goes missing eleven hours before the signing.

Standing in the middle of it all is Rustam Qadir - a special envoy from a country nobody invited, armed with nothing but a footnote, a stolen meeting, and an unshakable belief that somebody, somewhere, has to hold the door open.

THE PEACE DEAL OF THE CENTURY is a razor-sharp political satire in the spirit and filtered through the gleeful, deadpan absurdity of Hot Shots! It's a story about heads of state who are exactly as vain, exhausted, and quietly decent as the rest of us - and about how peace, when it finally arrives, rarely arrives because anyone was wise. It arrives because someone wanted to make their tee time.

Whip-smart, deeply human, and very, very funny, this is a book for anyone who's ever suspected that the people running the world are winging it - and found that oddly comforting.

Perfect for fans of: Political satire, dark comedy, ensemble farce, and readers who think the funniest room in any crisis is the one where everybody's arguing about lunch.
