America's in trouble as riots light up evening skies. A rich financier plans two murders to tip the balance of power his way. What's to stop him? Mostly three white-collar criminals: a disgraced spy, a blonde with a drinking problem, and a cop forced to retire.

They're thieves, who dare not contact the authorities. But these misfits have friends and exotic skills. They might even have a chance.

This story plays out against a raucous political climate, much like that following the last U.S. presidential election. However, the story soon takes its own, unique path as the unlikely protagonists must protect U.S. democracy or perish.

Expect genuine suspense, interesting characters, sporadic humor, and improbable romance. There's even some political satire.
