Sen. Henley Hornbrook fights the good fight in Washington, finally throwing up his hands in disgust as a tax reform bill passes that he thinks will jeopardize the economic security of the country. When he's proven right and the nation teeters into bankruptcy, Hornbrook and his team retreat to his home state of Washington, preparing with others in their rural communities to defend their homes. The country disintegrates and an unscrupulous president fights for control, leaving Hornbrook frustrated with the devastation of America.
This political thriller was an interesting read. No matter what your politics, you'll find fascination and fear in this "could be" book. In these days of economic challenges, it wouldn't be totally surprising to find THE HORNBROOK PROPHECY sitting on a non-fiction shelf. I highly recommend this book in the hopes of creating some stimulating thoughts and concerns about the choices our government is making.
What would happen if the United States government suddenly
went bankrupt?
An ancient beheading and a 200-year-old prediction foretell
the inevitable consequences of blind ambition and the abuse
of power in a thought-provoking, passionate challenge to
conventional political wisdom. Maverick Senator Henley
Hornbrook fights against unscrupulous President Winston
Dillard while a nationwide tax revolt plunges the country
into chaos before Hornbrook unveils a stunning plan that
will forever change the nation and preserve its destiny.
Is it fiction, or prediction? In a classic confrontation
between government oppression and rugged individualism, The
Hornbrook Prophecy will spark debate from the classroom to
the bar room about a new, principled hero who fights for
more than the girl and the gold.
