Red Mountain

A glimpse into an era of the past, where war and upheaval gripped China. An artist is captured for his gifts, imprisoned, and forced to chronicle the ruthless dictator's secret, sinister schemes through art. Hidden away in a mountain fortress, unknown to the government, the general is his own master—and the war he wages exists solely in his mind. His obsession is more than just about power. it is fueled by a deep hatred for his own blood. His plan to slowly release an invisible toxin on the West is born of Sins of the Father and lies that have contorted him into the monster he doesn't recognize. Within the prison walls, the artist finds a friend, and together they uncover fragile hope through forbidden text. Their struggle is not just for themselves—the truth they discover may be the only thing that can free hundreds of prisoners and stop a threat that could consume the entire world. Red Mountain is a soul-stirring, profoundly philosophical tale of courage, friendship, and the human spirit tested against darkness and deception. For fans of Unbroken,Les Misérables, and The Kite Runner, this book explores the weight of buried secrets, the haunting shadows of despair, and the courage required to endure when all seems lost - in a place where one act of bravery can ripple far beyond what anyone imagines.
