If I Had Only Known
by H H Fowler
Kindle $2.99 Rating: 5.0 #ad
Modern science dares to usurp the throne of creation, led by a shadowy league of oligarchs who tamper with human genetics in a godless bid to rival the Almighty. Like the builders of Babel, they defy divine order, reaching for power never meant for mortal hands. But are they unknowingly hastening the Rapture…or opening the very gates to the Great Tribulation?
Under the guise of paradise, they lure unsuspecting tourists to a place known as Tiger Island. Yet beneath its lush façade lies a cursed ground—a modern-day Eden corrupted by forbidden knowledge. Here, the veil between worlds is thin. The supernatural governs the natural, and reality bends to ancient, unseen forces. The island is not a retreat. It is a snare, designed to harvest souls and advance a dark agenda.
