Suspense
White House Director of Homeland security, Samantha Reid,
receives intelligence about a possible new threat to the
country's national security. The idea is staggering. What if
a hostile country or group gets hold of a small nuclear
device and then, instead of aiming it at one of our cities,
they intend to detonate it high in the atmosphere? The
result would be the creation of an Electro-Magnetic Pulse or
"EMP" sending shock waves that would "fry" all electronics
on the ground in its line of site. There would be no
electricity, no internet, no
computers... communications... transportation...
refrigeration... ATMs... it
would set us back to the year 1910! Could it happen here? White House officials are too
skeptical and too focused on other threats to pay attention
to Samantha's warnings. The love of her life, Tripp Adams is
sent on a business trip to a foreign country where just such
a plot is simmering. Will Tripp become embroiled? Will he be
trapped overseas while Samantha races to pull a team
together to foil a sinister plot? This gripping tale spans the globe and is filled with
international action and political intrigue at the highest
levels, made all too real by the author's "inside The White
House" details. It gives the reader a seat at the table in
the Situation Room, the meetings in the Oval Office, and the
frantic search for a way out. It's a trip on a wild ride of
an all-too-real scenario for the future of our country.
