Seven Days Before The American Presidential Election |

|
Since THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY'S critically acclaimed debut, what would have been thought of as a fiction story is turning to fact right before our eyes. Terrorist attacks have become the country's foremost fear and concern. With racial and religous intolerance on the rise each year, what is going to happen next? Are the American people safe? Or, is something horrific brewing somewhere that will make everything else tame in comparison? THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY, which takes place sometime in the near future, and which rivals what has been happening in the world these last dozen or more years, addresses this frightening problem. This prophetic psychological thriller opens seven days before the presidential election with the bombing of America’s twelve HOPE Cities. These major urban areas that were once infested with poverty and crime, had been transformed into thriving cities by U.S. Senator Sam Howard, the republican candidate in the upcoming presidential election. Tens of thousands of minority Americans are killed in the simultaneous bombings. Even more are murdered in the race war that follows. And no one knows who’s behind it. Jane Weisser, campaign director for Sam Howard in a extremely close presidential race, fortunately (or unfortunately) uncovers the conspiracy behind the worst act of terrorism in American history, only she is unable to go to the authorities with it out of fear for her and her daughter’s lives. Forced to hatch a counterplot of her own soon after the presidential election, Jane enlists the help of the Reverend Dr. Moses McBride, President of the National African Caucus, whose people were outnumbered to win the war from the beginning. In a race against time and to destroy the conspiracy, Jane and Moses take on Sayyid Kassim and the eleven old men of Al-Qiyamah (the Rising of the Dead) who lost their only sons to America’s ‘trained killers’ in the Gulf War; Garrison Miller, grand marshal of the People for a White America, who has vowed to keep the war going; and...the President of the United States. |
