Opis

After working in military intelligence and then making a career at a large aerospace company, Ian Black comes out of retirement to help save the United States, from a president who wants to remain in office for life. President Tuckwell, and his advisor Valda Lewis, develop a heinous plan, which involves a false flag attack on Washington, with deadly consequences for many Americans. Similar to the 1933 scheme by Hitler and the Nazis, the purpose of the president's plot is to be able to declare a state of emergency and justify cancelling the next election. Ian Black, together with the governors of Tennessee and other states, figure out what is going on in Washington and plan a response. They have to stop Tuckwell, before it is too late, from reaching his ultimate goal; to be the first American dictator. This book by the Osborns shows that the quote by Lord Acton in 1887 is true: "Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely." This novel contains political intrigue, an attack on the homeland, sex and murder.
