When I began writing Jonathan Chambers: Deception β a psychological thriller about power, identity, and soul science β I didnβt know where it would lead. What started as a meditation on privilege and the boundaries of modern science quickly spiralled into something darker. Something more metaphysical. More human.
At its core, Deception is more than a conspiracy thriller. Itβs a story about one manβs search for truth β and the fragile soul beneath his polished exterior.
Jonathan Chambers is a self-made millionaire. A charismatic playboy with a sharp tongue and a glittering life. But behind the tailored suits and towering offices lies a deeper truth: a gnawing need to understand who he really is β and why the mysterious Ankh Institute seems to know more about him than he knows about himself.
ποΈ The Ankh Institute: Where Science Meets the Supernatural
The Ankh Institute is no ordinary research centre. Hidden behind its pristine facade is a labyrinth of secrets:
-
Reincarnation programs
-
Soul transfer experiments
-
Ethical AI and data-driven morality
This isnβt just science fiction β itβs a psychological exploration of identity, control, and the soul itself. A place where science collides with the metaphysical. A modern cathedral built on the edge of human understanding.
And Jonathan?
Heβs not just a guest.
He might be their latest subject.
Or perhaps⦠their most dangerous weapon.
