Items related to The Generals of October
The Generals of October is a fictional thriller about a Second Constitutional Convention that threatens to reshape or destroy the U.S. as we have known it. The novel anticipates the worst crisis since U.S. history since the Civil War--right around the corner, amid a climate of divisive hatreds, increasing economic woes, and spiraling civil unrest. Leading law school libraries have accepted this book for their collections--a rare honor for a work of fiction. It is both a rousing, entertaining thriller, and a cautionary tale. The premise comes directly from Article V in the U.S. Constitution. "What if voters grew tired of financial ruin, government chaos, and endless bickering--and let raving demagogues sway them into ignoring the voices of reason, and into voting for a Second Constitutional Convention (CON2)?" Can today's shallow, self-interested politicians really do better than the Founding Fathers? The recipe for doom is right there, inshrined in our founding document. Young Army officers David Gordon and Victoria 'Tory' Breen must unravel the conspiracy of the treasonous Hotel Generals. David and Tory must bring together the forces of tradition and reason-and help restore the United States to order, liberty, and sanity. Cpt. David Gordon is on a military intelligence mission, masquerading as an Inspector General officer. Lt. Tory Breen is the Executive Officer of the most ultra-secret computer operation in the nation's capital, which is highjacked by military extremists for a take-over of the United States, using CON2 as a Trojan Horse. Along the way, they fall in love-and must solve a terrible personal secret from her past life.
