Thriller Political
The Golden Hour: In international politics, the hundred
hours following a coup, when there is still a chance that
diplomacy, a secret back channel, military
action—something—might reverse the chain of events. As the top American diplomat for West Africa, Todd Moss saw
a great deal about how diplomacy and politics actually work.
But as he shows us, the results aren’t always pretty. When Judd Ryker is appointed director of the new State
Department Crisis Reaction Unit, he figures he has a mandate
to help the United States respond more quickly to foreign
crises, but he hasn’t reckoned with the intense State,
Defense, Pentagon, White House, and CIA infighting and turf
battles he would face. Then comes the coup in Mali. It is
his chance to prove that his theory of the Golden Hour
actually works—but in the real world, those hours move very,
very quickly indeed, and include things he’d never even
imagined. As Ryker races from Washington across Europe to the Sahara
Desert, he finds that personalities, loyalties, everything
he thought he knew, begin to shift and change beneath his
feet—and that friends and enemies come in many forms.
