Asleep at the Wheel will jolt you, trouble you, and trample your senses and sensibilities from start to finish. With the Pentagon and World Trade Center tragedies as horrible reminders, John R. Hanny describes the evil forces that plague the United States today. He then dares to take the next frightening steps that fear prevents most readers to even think about.
Corrupt political power, greed, and religious fanaticism are aligned against the virtuous honor and unswerving allegiance to respect the dignity of all humankind. This is a consuming tale that clearly distinguishes the good guys from the bad--for the most part.
Hanny’s prescient insights about worldwide terrorism are unnerving in both scope and intensity, but his tale is bolstered by hope, determination, and resolve. After being frightened by extraordinarily heinous events and lifted by heroic deeds, the reader will not easily forget the emotional maelstrom that is Asleep at the Wheel.
