Global Rage: Murder and International Chaos Triggered by One Little Lie

LOUISIANA

Dr. John Foster and his brother, Jason, pack the van, bound for their isolated fishing cabin on an inlet of Bayou D'Arbonne Lake. John, a nationally-acclaimed petroleum and natural gas expert, is eager to break away from his workload and beat out his brother in their annual fishing challenge. Jason, a brilliant, unemployed free-spirit, is keen on the trip too, but becomes distracted from fishing after he sees a small sign along the roadside that advertises a local bar named, The Mud Hole.

Jason pays a visit to The Mud Hole and becomes a regular, picking up money at the pool table and women at the bar. His popularity escalates during absent-minded bar talk when he tells a lie that ensnares John and his brother's fiancé, Jordanna Gray, into a downward spiral of international espionage and murder.

Their future and the future of the United States of America as a world power weigh perilously in the balance -- events triggered by one little lie ....
