What if the only way to save the planet is to kidnap the billionaires destroying it?
Josh Latham built his fortune on manipulation, power, and public image. As CEO of the world’s largest corporation, he couldn't be bothered by rising sea levels and the climate crisis. But when he wakes up in an unfamiliar room, trapped inside a body that won’t obey him, he realizes he's no longer in charge.
And Josh isn't alone. Four other billionaires—once rivals, now fellow captives—share his fate. Their abductors? A well-funded sisterhood of psychedelic therapists led by Mel, a grief-hardened leader clinging to her sobriety while risking everything to heal the planet. Her radical plan: dismantle the egos of the men who hold humanity’s future in their hands—and force them to work together to solve climate change.
But transformation is messy, especially when it’s coerced. And as tensions rise, the question remains: does the end justify the means?
They Could Be Saviors is a near-future speculative novel about billionaire accountability, and the unpredictable road to redemption. Blending the psychological intensity of Severance with the transformative tension of Nine Perfect Strangers, it asks: what would it take to make the world’s wealthiest men finally fight for everyone, not just the elite?
