Publisher's Synopsis
Can one woman challenge a corrupt President and a Russian conspiracy? Madison Padgett's fight to save her dying town is blocked by Conrad Vega, the handsome, idealistic Democratic senator determined to save humanity from a global warming catastrophe.
But when violence explodes, Madison has an opportunity to grasp unthinkable power.
Now she must choose between her lifelong goal--a goal she now questions--and fighting a conspiracy fueled by a corrupt president's ego and greed. And if she fails, America, and all it stands for in the world, will be destroyed.
Exciting, provocative, and unabashedly liberal, POWER IN THE AGE OF LIES is an action-packed thriller. In an era of unprecedented dishonesty, enter a new world where heroes believe in truth, and fight for the rights of all.
Readers are saying...
"I had trouble sleeping last night after I finished this relentless thriller. The characters are ripped out of today's headlines. The author keeps the suspense building and building. I really enjoyed this book even if it did scare me to death."
"Put aside Patterson, Baldacci and Grisham and give Verant a look."
"I was totally sucked into the characters and the plot. The future Verant sketches, with California leading a break-away resistance, seems terrifyingly plausible."
"If you are a fan of Nelson DeMille then this book is for you. I turned off the light pretty late as I raced to the ending."
