Description

In the year 2030, the world faces a grave threat of widespread starvation due to the effects of climate change. Droughts, floods, and unpredictable weather patterns have devastated arable lands, leading to mass migrations and food insecurity. To combat this crisis, a group of biotechnologists known as the Transglobal Biotech Consortium has developed revolutionary Super Agri-seeds. These advanced seeds possess the remarkable ability to resist newly emerging fungal spores and significantly increase crop yields.
However, amidst the global turmoil, certain fascist nationalist governments have risen to power in Western nations. Exploiting the desperation caused by food shortages, these leaders secretly conspire to seize the Super Agri-seeds, which were intended to be distributed to impoverished nations. Their sinister objective is to exacerbate starvation among the most vulnerable populations, echoing the genocidal intentions of the past.
Meanwhile, a Mossad agent, driven by a personal history shaped by the Holocaust and the resilience of his ancestors, stumbles upon this nefarious plot. Realizing the immense responsibility resting on his shoulders, he embarks on a perilous mission to retrieve the stolen seeds before it's too late. His race against time becomes a critical battle between life and death, for the fate of millions deemed unworthy of survival hangs in the balance.
In this gripping tale, the world population teeters on the edge of starvation, with hope found in the Super Agri-seeds that promise a solution. The narrative explores themes of resilience, heroism, and the fight against tyranny, drawing parallels to the darkest chapters of human history.

Reviews

The BookViral Review:

Emotionally charged and powerfully thought-provoking, despite all the real-life horror in evidence across our planet, readers' appetites for Espionage Eco thrillers continue to gain momentum, reflecting our growing awareness of environmental issues. The Seed Sanctuary: Book 2 Volume 2 (Mossad Chronicles) by Ken Peters proves to be a remarkable addition to the genre.

Plunging readers into a near future Peters invites them to imagine the consequences of failing crops and mass immigration to deliver an Espionage Eco Thriller that's not only refreshingly original and intelligent but resonates with haunting sombreness. He appreciates readers today demand a higher level of scientific accuracy in the background of these stories and here The Seed Sanctuary doesn't just provide a healthy dose of entertainment. It's a stark reminder of our planet's environmental challenges and a call to action to protect it.

To this end, Peters masterfully juggles two converging plot threads. The first focuses on Mossad agent Solomon and his mission to turn a member of Russia's FSB in Moscow and Solomon's mother's pivotal role with TBC in distributing super Agri-seeds which will turn the tide on food-insecurity refugees entering Europe and beyond.
The Seed Sanctuary ticks all the boxes necessary for a superior Espionage Eco thriller with its propulsive and engrossing narrative. With strong characterisation and a great sense of place, it is to Peter's credit that Solomon isn't another stereotyped product of the thriller production line with a tacked-on crisis. His story does more than thrill and captivate; it sends the imagination into overdrive, reminding us of everything an Espionage Eco Thriller should be. A harrowing story where the stakes are high that veers into the realm of political loss and gain.
A superb release from Peters with the promise of more in his Mossad Chronicles series to come The Seed Sanctuary is an unreservedly recommended Golden Quill read.
