Reseña del editor:

IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE ...The United States of America has fragmented under the pressures of terrorism and religion. Christian and American heritages have merged into one mythology. Presidents are referred to as Father Washington, and considered God’s mortal avatar.Cyborg security agent Leslie thwarts an Atheist assassination attempt, Congress awards her official Sainthood. From the outside, her future couldn’t look better: She's a hero, an instant celebrity. But on the inside, Leslie is miserable.Leslie’s memory has been artificially suppressed, her supervisor has impregnated her, and her own organization is spying on her. Her only friend is her talking gun -- and she’ll lose that after the beatification.Commiting herself to investigate the Atheists, Leslie unknowingly casts herself into a discovery of her concealled past that threatens to bring down the very man she saved. For the Atheists are led by “The Antichrist”, an illegal clone of Father Washington, hell bent on one objective: the destruction of the U.S.’s Theocracy.Will Leslie survive her own awakening?

Biografía del autor:

Although new on the science fiction scene, Andrew Tisbert has been nominated for the Sidewise Award for Alternate History alongside such luminaries as Harry Turtledove and Paul Reed. His fiction has appeared in Paradox Magazine, Talebones, Son and Foe and the L. Ron Hubbard Writers of the Future anthology. Originally from Vermont and Upstate New York, a series of dubious decisions have left him currently exiled in Los Angeles, where he divides his time performing as a flutist in an alternative metal rock band, finishing his next two novels, arguing politics and working with the homeless.
