About the Author
Tom Ryker has been fascinated with economics, politics, and government for many years. Recent trends in economic and political uncertainty, bail outs, handouts, corporate crime, evaporating life savings, government corruption and puppet presidents prompted him to take a break from corporate America and write the action packed thriller "Defiance." Defiance by Tom Ryker has a five star rating on Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble The intent of Defiance is to explore what could happen if contemporary governments become so corrupt and irresponsible that they ignite the fiery indignation of the George Washingtons, Thomas Jeffersons, John Adams' and Benjamin Franklins among us. Imagine Thomas Jefferson and John Adams sitting in a tavern, having discussions that King George III would've classified as treasonous. Picture these men scheming to overthrow or substantially modify our current government! Thank God they did what they did in the seventeen hundreds or America would never have been born. What would happen today if men of similar character were fed up with the federal government? What would happen if governments could not secure our "life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness?" What would happen if - in the words of the Declaration of Independence - our "government becomes destructive of these ends, and it [became] the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness?" What would George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams and Benjamin Franklin have to say about our government today? What action would they take? Defiance will keep you on the edge of your seat through a roller coaster ride of suspense and intrigue until you have the answer. Defiance by Tom Ryker is available in print or ebook from Amazon and Barnes and Noble (Original Story, Five Star, Government Corruption, Suspense, Action, Thriller, Science Fiction, Intrigue, Defiance, Corporate Corruption, CIA, FBI)
