The Control Center (Book 1)

China, a country of 1.4 billion citizens, is an existential threat to itself and the rest of the world. With its news and media censored through the Control Center before being broadcast to viewers, the Chinese people have no hope of realizing that their government is only looking to enrich and reward its most prominent leaders. A chance meeting one night in Shanghai introduces American banker Jack Gold to an Israeli man named Ari, who has a stunning proposition: Help Israel and the United States infiltrate China's heavily guarded Control Center and address the nation with the truth they deserve to hear. But getting into the Control Center will not be easy. And even if such a dangerous undertaking succeeds, there is no guarantee that the growing tensions between China and the United States can be quelled. But Jack's love for China, and the beautiful artist he meets one night, pushes him to the brink as he risks everything to help a nation of people whose lives and livelihoods have been stifled by government control.
