American Conspiracy
"A stellar novel of action, adventure, and intrigue." --Steve Berry, New York Times bestselling author
The presumed president-elect has been assassinated. The fate of the United States is at stake.
And Detective Jim Murphy of the Chicago PD is to blame. Serving as extra security in a parade for the apparent presidential winner, he succumbs to a moment of distraction. That indelible lapse allows an assassin to take down the president-elect. His shame is made even more profound now that Bryan, his rivalrous brother from the Justice Department, has come to Chicago to investigate the assassination and rub it in. Determined to restore his reputation, Murphy throws himself into a new investigation: the mysterious disappearances of several Chicago gangbangers. As he untangles the threads tying the disappearances to shocking murders, he is led to the doorstep of aging Sebastian Senex, a pharmaceutical tycoon desperate to cheat dementia and death.
Meanwhile, the presidential election is thrown into Congress for resolution, ultimately catapulting Dallas Taylor, the young and progressive vice president-elect, into the Oval Office. Enraged at being led by a millennial president, Sebastian Senex and his power broker minions plot a coup to return the United States to what they see as the glories of yesteryear. As Senex's plan is set in motion, Detective Jim Murphy and President Taylor must unite to put down the conspiratorial menace facing a United States in crisis.
The old must give way to the new, but as death reaches out from one generation to give birth to the next, how far are some willing to go to hang on to life and power over the future?
