Mind Switch

On that bloody winter’s day of January 1, 2010, on the outskirts of Wana, in South Waziristan, two MQ-9 Reaper drones firing two five-hundred-pound GBU-12 Paveway II laser-guided bombs into a family home had recruited the latest jihadist. On that day, he was born into terrorism—a supporter of violent jihad, an avowed destroyer of America and its NATO allies. Those who saw him and heard him as he turned and stumbled away, described the ghastly sound that escaped his lips as a scream of grief, but it was not—it was the primal scream of birth. Days later, climbing higher into the bleakest part of the Hindu Kush mountains of Afghanistan, every hour, what kept him going when he was hardly conscious from fatigue was one refrain—the words of his father; “the steps of the stairway to heaven you have to build yourself.” But over the days of his grueling journey, those words had come to mean something different to him. He no longer believed in heaven or hell or Allah, anymore. On January 1, 2010, when those bombs exploded and killed his family, Allah were killed with them. From that moment on, there would only be the stairway to revenge, and he would build the steps to it himself. MIND SWITCH, the second book in the thought-provoking Brainstorm series is a full-length novel. It is a nail-biting suspense-thriller with unexpected twists, mind-bending science, and captivating concepts which readers will be mulling over long after they've read the last page. It is highly recommended that you read the first book, SIGMA WAVE before you read MIND SWITCH.
