    Dear Listeners, 
    Welcome to the thrilling world of "11th Sense - The Final Defence." From the very beginning, this story has been a journey of discovery and imagination—a journey I am excited to share with you. 
    In this age of rapid technological advancements, where humanity continuously pushes the boundaries of science and the known world, I found myself wondering: What if there were more to human potential than we could ever imagine? We often think of our five basic senses as the limits of our interaction with reality, but what if there were hidden abilities within us—senses we’ve never fully explored? And what if those senses were the key to saving the world? 
    That question sparked the idea for this novel. 11th Sense - The Final Defence is more than just a thriller; it’s a story of unlocking hidden potential and harnessing the full spectrum of human capabilities. It’s about a group of individuals, seemingly ordinary at first, who rise to extraordinary challenges. They discover that within them, and within all of us, lie abilities that can change not just our personal worlds but the future of humanity itself. 
    Happy Listening
