Opis

Will the first female president destroy American democracy, or leave it to her female challenger? If Hadley R. Crawford loses, can America survive? What would happen if a dedicated group of citizens; growing in numbers but remaining secretive; worked to take over the control of the United States government without resorting to an armed revolution...and were successful? Three people; three friends; one a teacher from the enigmatic Skull & Bones; one a billionaire Texas oilman/senator; and one an idealistic Northwestern University female graduate begin a forty-year journey to destroy American democracy while hiding in plain sight. Each person is a pivotal part of a twisting, fast-moving puzzle of death, sex, and power, to redefine American politics for generations in a presidential election after the Obama era. Are they covert anarchists, or just the true patriots they claim to be? Or are they something even more sinister and deadly than the two of them put together? Get ready for a scenario that is tense, logical, and populated with recognizable-like characters, with a conclusion that is not only astonishing, but also entirely plausible. President Hadley R. Crawford, the first female president, finds herself in the race of her life with a charismatic U.S. Senator from New Mexico, Sara Principle. Unknown to the president, her long-time friend and head of the CIA, Clifford Cantrell is working behind the scenes for the assassination of Senator Principle because he believes President Crawford cannot defeat her. At the same time, she is betrayed by some individuals who are close to her. Are they working against her? Is Principle not what she seems? In her attempt to be re-elected, President Crawford is also plagued with the knowledge that World War III may happen if she loses. Some of her employees are helping Principle behind the scenes, and she is even betrayed by her husband. Can she survive? Will war break out? What happens to America if she loses? She is very afraid.
