Set in an alternative reality where "All the President's men" do not get caught at Watergate, this "shockingly believable" novel presents the frightening scenario of what could happen if a powerful but paranoid American chief executive goes out of control.

"—The dirty tricks have just begun; rape, murder, plot and counterplot...are nothing to this imperial President..." --Publishers Weekly.

"[T]he authors have brought a chilling sense of reality to their fast-paced, smoothly-written thriller. It may be fiction, but it is close enough to fact to be genuinely terrifying." --The Miami Herald.
