Book Description

A technological-religious thriller, THE CYBER REVELATION, is a powerful prescient work of fiction and should be read by the rest of the world today as it may have just enough time to prepare for its fate tomorrow. The next world war begins over the Internet. By early summer 2011, Ali Omar, a former U.S. intelligence officer, resurfaces as the leader of a rogue cabal of computer experts operating inside Chechnya. Their creation, The Third Millennium, a computer virus designed to manipulate the Internet and shape a new world destiny, is usurped by a malevolent presence initiating the assault on the Holy Land foretold in biblical prophecies. Unsealing the ancient prophecies, the presence molds the behavior of all who view a computer screen into evil incarnate through the commission of acts of violence. John Granger, computer forensics expert and special assistant to the Department of Homeland Security, races against time to locate and eliminate the source of the new cyber-evil tracing its footprints by deciphering a series of messages deposited on compromised government computers. As he investigates the scenes of the victims, Granger is unaware he has made himself a target for assassination. EXCERPT: "Site R continuity of operations are complete Mr. President," reported the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff from the subterranean room in Raven Rock. The President?s image from the White house filled the screen on the near wall. "Video conferencing with Greenbrier and Mt. Weather have confirmed standby procedures of the relocation system. The emergency preparedness centers are fully operational. I expect to hear from infectious diseases in Detrick within the hour." "I want a full report in 8 hours," snapped the President. "What?s causing the violence? Is the source biological? Is it psychological? Has an unknown pathogen been released into the population? The best experts in the world are working around the clock and still we have no answers. All we know is people are dying en masse." "Anything definitive come back from Homeland Security on the Third Millennium virus?" asked the Chairman. "No. The Cyber Security Division is coordinating with Computer Emergency Response teams" the President replied. "Since the virus began to swamp the Internet, they?ve developed a strategy to secure it from the cyber rage. To lighten public concern, a series of alerts have been posted categorizing the virus as a low threat. The strategy appears to be working. While the technology community sifts and analyzes data on the Third Millennium, the media?s ignoring the spread of a low-threat cyber event. We?re reaching a critical point. I?ve read preliminary reports from CERTs theorizing a relationship between the Third Millennium and the violence. The dots haven?t been completely connected but, if true, the destruction of our culture may be delivered by the one solution we designed to promote global unity."
