Inhaltsangabe

The year is 2085. The American people are weary of corrupt government officials putting their selfish interests over the citizens' well-being. Riots erupt across the country, demanding that existing government officials be replaced by artificially intelligent cyborgs manufactured by Damian Malone and his company, AlonGen Corporation. A genius in robotics and genomic testing, Malone has perfected the manufacture of artificially intelligent cyborgs that run ninety-five percent of people's homes and businesses, and when the populace witness his latest creation, they are desperate to see the United States government led by the cyborgs' logical algorithms rather than the malfeasance and corruption of current human leadership. What the country is unaware of is Malone's second passion: cloning. A strong conservationist, he uses his vast wealth and his leverage over the current President, John Langdon, to establish a new branch of government called the Department of Environmental Preservation (DEP), and to appoint Dr. Stephanie Wolff as its leader. Dr. Wolff, a prominent figure in the conservation movement, has been working tirelessly to end corporate animal testing and all forms of animal cruelty worldwide. With forty percent of the world's animal populations facing extinction due to human interference, she welcomes the opportunity offered by President Langdon and Malone to use the vast might of the United States to aid her quest, but a series of events, both at home and abroad, changes her perspective forever. When a hunting party in Africa goes missing, and an American Senator is murdered, she is brought further into the workings of Dr. Malone and his company, with the results shaking her to her core. Along with FBI Special Agent Stryker, the two must decipher Malone's intentions, and hope they are in time to save not only the United States, but planet Earth from his formidable machines.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Growing up, I always loved to read and was fortunate enough to find Tolkien, The Hardy Boys, L. Ron Hubbard, and Frank Herbert which I voraciously consumed. As I got older, and became an English lit major, I moved on to Faulkner, Hemingway, Pat Conroy, Jules Verne, HG Wells, and in the modern era Michael Crichton. After moving to Los Angeles out of college, tried my hand at screenwriting, and managed to work for a pretty solid producer to learn the ropes, but after four years, moved back to the valley of the sun and began my home building career. Now that my homebuilding career is over, I'm rediscovering the joys of writing and immersing myself into my fictional worlds. I hope to do so for many more years to come.
