Bestselling author Harris L. Kligman returns with a gripping new geopolitical thriller, Land of Morning Calm – A Korean War Story of Today, set to launch globally in late Q3 2025. In a time when global tensions simmer beneath the surface of diplomacy, Kligman’s timely novel imagines the unthinkable: a modern reignition of the Korean War.
When North Korean Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un unleashes an unprovoked and brutal attack against South Korea, the fragile peace in the region is shattered. The U.S. is drawn into the conflict, and the world teeters on the edge of World War III. At the heart of the chaos is Lieutenant Chato Nelson, an American Intelligence Officer of White Mountain Apache heritage, who finds himself stranded behind enemy lines.
Chato Nelson, a Native American of the White Mountain Apache tribe, carries the name of one of the twelve revered war chiefs who fought under the legendary Apache leader, Cochise.
A college graduate and ROTC-commissioned officer in the United States military, Chato completed his training at the Army Infantry School at Fort Benning, Georgia, where he successfully graduated from both the Ranger and Airborne courses. Upon completion, he was assigned to an infantry unit stationed in Seoul, South Korea—just before the region is thrown into chaos by a surprise military offensive launched by North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un.
Partnering with a wounded South Korean female officer, Chato must traverse hostile territory, evade capture by North Korea’s elite forces, and survive a war that is not yet fully declared. Their journey is both physically perilous and emotionally charged—an odyssey that becomes a symbol of unity across borders and cultures in the face of war.
In an age of renewed global conflict, Land of Morning Calm resonates with urgent relevance. It explores the price of freedom, the fragility of peace, and the unbreakable spirit of those who dare to resist tyranny. Kligman’s masterful storytelling invites readers into a world where courage is tested at every turn—and where one soldier’s mission could change the course of history.
