Jellyfish Device

The year is 2054 and technology has given us smart contact lenses, retinal holographs, green power, and AI psychologists, but it has also given us fanaticism and DIY nuclear weapons.

Kevin is a genius hacker/inventor and veteran of the second Ukrainian war who wants a better life. Jade is a beautiful but lethal Chinese ex-gangster who wants to leave her dark past behind. Both are irresistibly drawn to each other, but Jade is afraid to tell him her shocking secret.

Kevin's luck is improving when a billionaire robber baron hires him to find his kidnapped son. In the process, he and Jade become entangled with a twisted cult with a bizarre nuclear device that, if used, will be apocalyptic.

The timer is set, the clock is ticking, 400,000 will die in a flash. Can our heroes stop The Jellyfish Device?

For fans of near-future hard science fiction.

"William Marshall has a very engaging and visual style!"
-Robert Sawyer, author of The Oppenheimer Alternative and 25 other novels and recipient of every major science fiction award, including the Hugo and Nebula Awards
