The plot against the president  Cover Image Book Book

The plot against the president / Sam Bourne.

Bourne, Sam, 1967- (Author).

Summary:

The United States has elected a volatile demagogue as president. When a war of words with the North Korean regime spirals out of control and the president comes perilously close to launching a nuclear attack, it's clear that someone has to act or the world will be reduced to ashes. Soon Maggie Costello discovers an inside plot to kill the president and faces the ultimate moral dilemma. Should she save the president and leave the free world at the mercy of an increasingly crazed would-be tyrant or commit treason against her commander in chief and risk plunging the country into a civil war?
