The Joshua Paradox

A betrayed agent. A stolen daughter. A nuclear countdown.

Former FBI counter-terrorism operative Thomas Joshua has spent years hiding from his past in the Alaskan wilds. But peace is shattered when his greatest enemy, a ruthless Spetsnaz colonel, kidnaps the daughter Joshua never knew he had.

To save her, Joshua must mount a rogue infiltration of Castle Noir—a heavily fortified island stronghold. The stakes skyrocket when a hidden nuclear suitcase bomb is detected on-site. With the military preparing to level the island, Joshua has just one night to breach the fortress, eliminate his oldest enemy, and rescue his daughter before the countdown hits zero.

Ben R. Furman draws directly from his high-stakes career as a former FBI counter-terrorism chief to craft the authentic, chilling world of The Joshua Paradox.

During his distinguished tenure in federal law enforcement, Furman led tactical SWAT operations, spearheaded complex investigations into kidnappings and extortions, and directed the containment of transnational cartels and weapons of mass destruction.

The Joshua Paradox is his third thriller for adults, following the acclaimed releases of The Shadow Dance Murders and The Devil's Darning Needle.When he isn't writing pulse-pounding suspense, Furman channels his creativity into authoring inspiring, value-driven adventure stories, and picture books for children.
