When Soo-jin, a loyal North Korean pilot, is selected for a mysterious international assignment, she knows better than to ask questions. Ordered to calibrate what she's told is air-sampling equipment, she undergoes specialized training, assumes a false identity, and begins her journey across borders-from a nuclear facility in North Korea to remote sites in China, Canada, and ultimately the United States. Along the way, she experiences culture, kindness, and freedom she was taught to despise-forcing her to question everything she's ever believed.
Meanwhile, Canadian air-freight captain Cynthia is investigating a suspicious shipment connected to a nonexistent South Korean company. Her search leads her to take control of the very flight carrying the suspicious cargo, unaware that Soo-jin will be her unexpected passenger.
As the two women converge mid-flight, a horrifying truth emerges: the "equipment" is a disguised nuclear weapon, and they are minutes from disaster. One woman must risk her life to stop the plot. The other must find a way to live with the consequences.
Deadly Delivery is an international thriller of espionage, loyalty, and moral reckoning-where enemies become allies, truth defies ideology, and one fateful flight decides the fate of thousands.

Author background=================Peter Freeman lives on Salt Spring Island on the west coast of Canada. He writes nonfiction and fiction novels, screen and stage plays, short stories, magazine articles, and poetry.Peter grew up in what was once the sleepy fishing village of Noosa Heads on the Sunshine Coast, just south of the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. He started his career as a cadet surveyor and then as a journeyman fitter and turner before focusing on computer science at the University of Tasmania.While in Hobart, Peter joined the local rock climbing club, where he later met Max Dorfligger, a carpenter, shipwright, and famous Swiss mountaineer. Peter sailed across the Tasman Sea with Max in the thirty-two-foot sloop, Sunshine, that Max had built to New Zealand, where Peter then spent the next few years driving trains and building his sailboat, Laivina.Eventually, Peter sailed from New Zealand to Australia and then to Canada, where he incorporated an Information Technology company that produced and sold scientific and business software to universities, governments, and the private sector. In 1984, Peter departed Victoria, British Columbia, to sail his thirty-two-foot sloop, Laivina, on a solo, non-stop circumnavigation of the globe, breaking the existing world record with a time of 236 days. His book, Cape Horn Birthday, is an account of this journey.Peter is a masters athlete who has represented Canada internationally in world championships, competing in Italy, South Africa, Australia, the USA, and Canada, and has won gold, silver, and bronze medals in these competitions in the 100, 200, 400, and 800 metre events. In 2003, at 51, Peter was ranked 11th in the world and 1st in Canada in the 400-metre event for his time in Puerto Rico of 55.10 seconds.Peter has twice ridden his bicycle across Canada and, at the age of 61, bicycled the 15,400 kilometres around the perimeter of Australia, unsupported, in 79 days, averaging 200 kilometres a day.His colourful history has given him an endless vault of story ideas to write about, as his publishing experience illustrates:Awards====== .
