After many years of fighting the war on terror, Delta Force Major Patrick Kindayr must choose between creeping disillusionment and an incredible offer to run for president of the United States. He wavers, until the shock assassination of the senator tipped to become the first female president convinces him that he must save a corrupted nation, and a world heading for disaster-even if this requires a pact with the devil.
He explodes onto a campaign trail that pits him against a line-up of candidates that bodes as ill for the future as the policies of an incompetent president. Kindayr must also outmaneuver key segments of corporate America, epitomized by ruthless energy czar Stu Vanderman. In this battle Kindayr becomes the willing instrument of California's powerful Governor Henderson, who must control the White House if he is to break the stranglehold of Big Oil and avert catastrophic climate change. The unsuspecting Vanderman, who stops at nothing to squeeze the last barrels of crude from the frozen Arctic to the steamy jungle, realizes too late his fateful miscalculation of trusting the wily governor. And too late does the governor realize that in Kindayr he unleashed a force he never bargained for.
From the primaries to the final candidate debates Kindayr manages not only to outwit a lethal South African ex-commando, but to stay ahead of a CIA officer and his shady associates wary of his friendship with Russia's new president. When Kindayr's predictions come true and a collapsing stock market begins to shatter the economy, the rising wave of his popularity makes the unthinkable come true. Against all odds he wins the White House-but turns his inauguration into a coup that will change the world.
