About the Book
An American scientist is born to Iraqi immigrants in New York. After a gifted education hardened with the tragic pitfalls of life Mohammed rediscovered the long discarded K-3 parasite. K-3, a parasite in structure functions as a virus attaching and destroying the optic nerve of human beings. This is a scientifically designed biological weapon, which becomes vastly over produced by natural molecular mutations. The human race extinction is very close at hand.
Shortly before K-3 is developed and designed the world flight 337 departs Tonga for Singapore. On board are four unique but very moral passengers who will soon be stranded on a South Pacific tropical island immune to K-3’s fallout. The survivors fall into the requirements of polygamy while raising the healthiest of offspring.
Their Paradise Island is in fact a micro-image of the needs of the world after K-3’s destruction.

Preface
It was bound to happen. Biological warfare and the development of deadly and/or disabling weapons have continued for over 2000 years with no control. Since the hunters first utilized poisonous darts differing factors have persisted to produce a stronger and stronger alternatives to destroy one’s enemies.
A perfect example of this is the AIDS virus. How has mankind survived tens of thousands of years before AIDS was discovered? Many believe that a military research unit developed and tested the virus creating it from the molecular structure of other known and commons viruses. For the strain to be tested on monkeys would be an ordinary laboratory method. Could it have escaped the testing area? Of course it is possible, even probable to many speculators. Would it have been developed as a weapon to destroy another’s population? Surely no one today would claim credit for the development and manufacturing of the HIV virus.
So where did the HIV virus come from? Did it just simply appear one day? Very doubtful. As with the frogs which have now been discovered with one eye or three legs, our environmental disaster, our weaponry and never-ending push to control others as well as to obtain more wealth is destroying mankind.
Is K-3 possible? You will decide.
This novel has many true facts and probabilities. Yet K-3 is not known to truly exist at least not to the general public.
This is how it happened.
Chapter I
How it Began
It is everyone’s dream to be stranded on a tropical island with a beautiful mate of the opposite sex. What would you do with three mates? It is without compromise that flight 337 and K-3 happened concurrently.
One must keep in close touch with each of the four main characters. Each has a completely different concept of relationship based upon their own experiences. Education, morals and personal well being, including goals are necessary for the survival of the foursome. None of these four are aware of K-3 or its devastation.
The aeronautical facts, geographical conditions as well as atmospheric temperatures are evidence of the authenticity of Isla De Hope.
Loyalty, devotion and the effects of love within this tale must be visualized through your own experiences. These are the factors, which kept mankind alive.
Hardly a week prior to the K-3 virus being released flight PA337 departed Tonga for its destination in Singapore. While the K-3 would adversely effect over 99% of the world’s population a few choice locations would be spared. One remote South Pacific island, Isla De Hope, domain included the unique circumstances of a southern trade wind with Antarctic based water fed directly to the tropics untouched from its polarized purity. The islands rock retained the crystal clean water for years of immunity.
Zoran was another unique location high above Burma in the Himalayas. Its high dry climate helped spare it from K-3 as were the elite naval command of U.S., Great Britain, Russia, France and Australian Special Forces. Zoran is one of the richest countries in the world.
Zoran’s half a million residents were blessed with an economy above all else. Having been propelled by natural resources of oil and minerals the Monarch had factored the profits for the commoner’s wealth and growth. Research, development technology and education had been aggressively addressed. Full paid scholarships to the best universities in the world were aggressively pursued. No student was left behind.
Internet schooling was tutored and paid for by the Zoran government. Torts and frivolous lawsuits were disallowed in the kingdom where its citizens were taught civil obedience from childbirth.
The most modern technical laboratories for Biochemistry, detection, electronics and medicine were decades ahead of the rest of the world. Stem cells had been harvested and organ cloning accomplished. Triple wall sealed laboratories allowed the safest of environments to study and develop the world’s deepest secrets. These same incubation labs could also keep unwanted biological trespassers out. Acres of green houses
kept a controlled temperature of 90 degrees year round by the ingenious use of solar and natural gases would prove vital to Zorans survival.
Chapter II
Mohammed Abibb
In 1978 when the Turks struck hard across the Kurd border into northern Iraq, Senior Han Abibb and his wife became refugees fleeing the genocide of the warring parties. She was six months pregnant when they crossed first into Albania, then Yugoslavia. They traveled by foot, truck and cart attempting to reach Italy where some distant relatives had migrated years before. Han had saved many gold and silver pieces as well as watches and jewelry from his former occupation as a bus driver for twenty years. Often passengers had no coins or money and needed transportation to the next village where his government route took him. He was one of the lucky ones having saved; somehow knowing this day would come.
This was Abibbs third wife. Both of his former wives had failed to honor him with children. One mysteriously died, while the other’s family took the second wife back in disgrace after her failure to deliver a child. Now he had proven he was a man for his wife was surely carrying his first son. His duty to Allah would be fulfilled. His seed had been planted.
Unfortunately the Italian Government had exhausted its humanitarian quota. He was stuck at a border crossing just east of Trieste when a fellow Muslim, a Yugoslavian border guard, told him of a cargo ship leaving for New York. Passage could be obtained for $4,000.oo each. America, America the dream. Could it be real? It would take every cent he had but well worth the cost.
Crossing the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean was far from easy. Han worked in the kitchen while his wife did the crew’s laundry for food and keep. The freighter was hauling marble, ceramics and lime. This was a heavy load and made for a slow voyage. The ship also carried on deck a dozen new Yugo automobiles.
Upon arrival in New York, Han pretended to be one of the many ship’s employees unloading the cars. Han drove the car onto the dock with his wife secretly hiding in the back seat.
Speaking almost no English, he was guided to the New York’s Muslim Temple where members of his faith aided him and his wife to give birth to a new U.S. citizen delivered at New York City’s General Hospital, 2 weeks after their arrival. With a son bearing American citizenship by birthright, Han figured his future was safe and secure. As a hard working proud father, the lowest level of employment was easy to obtain. Washing dishes, cooking, garbage collection and janitorial work provided the necessary income to feed his family while he quickly learned the simplest English language and the American way. As customary, his wife’s only task was the home and caring for his son. She devoted her life to ensuring the finest American education for Mohammed. They learned together with the child reading at age three and basic math before age five. As a devout Muslim, Han spent every available minute at the Temple working free as a maintenance man to thank Allah for his salvation and good fortune. Working several jobs to support family, Han was most proud of his very gifted son’s intelligence.
The child was small but healthy. This birth gave more credibility to the green card
application, which would allow Han to work. Han now was father to a U.S. citizen having been born stateside. The wife was a proud woman with the greatest of motherly instinct obtained from centuries of priceless Muslim customs. Employments in medial jobs from janitorial services to restaurant kitchen work were easy to come by. Han Abbib was a worker with the ambition to save to succeed. He now had a son to carry on his name as well as to spread his family heritage.
Work he did. Han took on every job that most would not even contemplate. Graveyard shifts, garbage details or even dangerous jobs such as cleaning high-rise windows were taken without hesitation. The Americans paid well. Very well infact and Han saved a large percentage of his ever-growing income.
Hans’s rent was cheap. The low-grade public housing was indeed located within the worst of New York’s ghettos. Crime, drugs and hate walked the streets and alleys of the area. To further reduce his rent Han cleaned the halls and walls of his housing building. During the time his wife spent every moment with her newborn son who had been appropriately named Mohammed. She taught him the Koran and read to him diligently. To her surprise her son seemed to understand the words. By age four he was fluent in Arabic as well as English and read every book his father found and brought home. Mohammed’s home schooling was soon complimented by the Temples council who kept a close watch on their flock. Mohammed was selected to attend the Muslims Free education classes at their temple. His mother would walk him the two blocks to the school every day and wait on the steps weaving clothing until her son classes were dismissed.
Mohammed did well. Real well. The council had never before seen such intelligence. The very small thin Persian dissident was without a doubt a genius. Within weeks he would finish his first year’s classes and months later his elementary classes were surpassed by his own demand for more knowledge.
The church elders took notice of the gifted one due to first the father’s constant bragging and then upon the child’s demonstration of skills well beyond his five years of age. Private tutors and a puritan Muslim education were made available due to the belief that the true genius surely would benefit the congregation and mainly its Muslim leaders. In seven years Mohammed had outgrown all of his instructors. Obviously a more formal structured and institutionalized setting was now required.
The first problem was Mohammed’s physique. He was very small in size and bone structure allowing him to be an easy target of bullies. Especially in the Afro-American dominated Queens where his father lived due to financial restraints, he was the subject of every neighbor’s insults. Being timid, frail and intelligent left him a very easy prey for his neighbors.
The same neighbors knew of his parent’s hard work and distrust for foreigners and the American way. Han had a real problem. His destiny of becoming a shining star was shielded by money, time requirement and his desire to be so close to his son.
Han’s Temple had arranged a school aptitude test. The results were
