What if the Great Flood wasn’t a biblical event, but rather a looming catastrophe tied to the Vatican’s secrets and ancient gods? What if we’re already living during the Second Coming without even realizing it? These are the chilling premises of Dead Souls by Alexander Suslov. This novel is not just another religious thriller—it’s a theologically charged, fast-paced exploration of faith, redemption, and the human condition.

A successful surgeon, Dennis Burke from San Francisco, California, is kidnapped along with his wife, Katie Burke. It was a special romantic getaway that was supposed to be relaxing, exciting, full of adventure and fun. Criminals have targeted the successful surgeon, and his wife is a bonus in their twisted plans. Dennis and his wife’s world will soon be turned upside down. A shocking reality awaits them, where prayers are needed, divine intervention, and the right circumstances to go in their favor. Their destiny seems to be aligning perfectly, but as history has taught us, all things don’t always go as planned.

Is the Earth doomed? Evidence mounts in a race against time to understand the sudden rise in the Sun’s core temperature. The world’s solar scientists insist the data is incontrovertible, and the planet is hurtling towards disaster.

The action never stops as they travel from San Francisco to Dubai in a search for answers…and a way to prevent worldwide panic.
