New from New York Times best selling novelist Oliver North:
America in 2032 is a poor shadow of the great nation its founders envisioned. The "Better Deal for All Americans" born of the Great Recession two decades earlier hasn't solved its economic crisis. Growing dependence on government has altered citizen rights - special interest groups have no voice, and a new intelligence system knows every person's actions and whereabouts.
And in this election year, the standing U.S. president will do anything to stay in power - even negotiate with terrorists who have forced world market oil prices over $500 per barrel. Amidst the corruption some covert patriots still won't play by the new rules, including Peter Newman, military veteran and U.S. trustee for three of America's biggest private armies. When his close friend - the inventor of a revolutionary fuel cell - disappears at a major energy conference on the thirty-first anniversary of 9/11/01, Newman calls on his son, James, to help find the missing scientist. The search becomes a perilous quest fraught with government duplicity, human betrayal, and international stakes. Those who look at the fluctuating world today and wonder "What if?" will find a sharply written cautionary tale with heart-pumping action and a surprising climax.
Genre: Thriller
