Description

New York Times bestselling author Stephen Coonts delivers another nail-biting thriller starring CIA Director Jake Grafton and his right-hand man, Tommy Carmellini.

The president of the United States stands on an outdoor stage, flanked by powerful members of his administration and party. Television crews are preparing for broadcast. High above the stage, on a nearby rooftop, a decorated sniper adjusts the scope on his rifle.

Afterwards, America will never be the same.

Jake Grafton and Tommy Carmellini suddenly find themselves on the wrong side of the law when a public act of violence throws the country into chaos just before a presidential election. After martial law is declared and rioting begins, Grafton and Carmellini must risk everything to unravel a massive conspiracy and help a new resistance movement rise up against an unimaginable enemy…

    I agree with the other reviewer. Ignore the left wing whining in the other reviews. Look at what’s happening in this country right now. Yes, this is fiction, but it’s certainly possible and quite believable. I have always liked Coonts work and this one doesn’t disappoint.
  • A masterpiece

    First off, don’t belief all the bad reviews by all the left wing radical Obama lovers. Coonts knocked this one out of the park. People need to relax. It’s fiction people.
  • Coonts is an old racist grump writing a hate fantasy about a loosely disguised Obama turned dictator

    I looked his earlier works like America and Cuba, and the one where Tommy goes to Versailles. But this sad, conservative snowflake of a sour grapes letter presented as a commentary of the perils of progressive immigration, the debilitating effects social services that feed the needy, and the destruction of law and order by the "ghetto rats is nothing more than an old white man's fever dream about dragging America back to the warm embrace of McCarthyism. I bought this for $.99 and feel cheated by that and the time I wasted reading it. If you think Fox News is saving America, that white men are victims, and that no man, woman, child, or pet should ever leave the house without the comforting presence of an American made firearm, then you will absolutely love this book. If you aren't living in daily fear of Muslims, Mexicans, or blacks, and if you get your news from NPR and the New York Times, and see immigrants as investors in the future success of America you will not only hate the book, you will become inexplicably curious about how warped ones influences would have to be to result in such a fearful, xenophobic, pessimistic state of paranoia.

    Could not be more disappointed with this purchase. Coonts slanted, ill-timed hit job on President Obama was disgusting. Guarantees I’ll never purchase another book by this “author”
