In this novel the United States helps Taiwan create a missile defense system for protection from Communist China. America's technological genius creates an impenetrable, multi-faceted shield called "Diamond Dome." The dome consists of multiple layers including space-based warning systems, radars on the ground and at sea, vessels surrounding the island, F-22 Raptor aircraft, lasers and AI-based Battle Management Systems. Mainland China has had the goal of annexing Taiwan for 90-years since World War II. The Chinese military could easily crush, indeed destroy, the island. However, Taiwanese computer chips and related technologies employ over a million workers on the mainland. Therefore, a massive attack or invasion is untenable. Consequently, the sole option becomes a hypersonic missile strike air burst over Taipei to force Taiwan to capitulate. But the Diamond Dome holds. It becomes a seminal event for China to realize it can't capture Taiwan. With additional trade pressure from America, China is forced to negotiate a century-long non-aggression treaty. As a result, America foregoes building is own Golden Dome. And the treaty initiates a new era of global peace and economic prosperity.
