The Second Great Depression is over. A secret crew of young researchers led by Tom Wright, physicist, mathematician, and martial artist, struggles to invent practical teleportation and revolutionize transportation. Meanwhile, Gina Barlow, a young public-choice economist, goes to work for the California leader of the American Liberty Party, and discovers a plot by evil RepubliCrats to loot Tom's company. In the face of opposition by transport unions, political predators, orthodox scientists, environmental radicals, entrenched industry, and potential competitors, can Tom and his 'Skeleton Crew' succeed, even with the help of Gina and Aikido expert Harry Pinkerton and his men? Will Tom and Gina ever really meet? Grab something solid and hang on Before opening this book.
