They told you it was a vaccine. They told you it was for your safety. They lied. The war for humanity isn't coming—it's already here.

These aren't isolated incidents or tragic coincidences—they are data points. This book connects those dots, exposing the "Obedience Serum" and revealing a truth more terrifying than you can imagine.
