Jonathan Meredith is a patriot; a defender of all that is good and pure, determined to lead his wayward nation back down the proper path ... his path. Jonathan
Meredith is a dangerous man; a ruthless and charismatic manipulator of crowds, politics, and history who will stop at nothing to achieve his ultimate goal:
ultimate power. In the heat-ravaged Sudan, the pilot and crew of a U.S. B-2 bomber equipped with devastating technology and firepower are being held captive
following a failed attack on a biological weapons plant. At Whiteman Air Force Base, an Air Force Captain - an African American has been charged with
espionage, and his trial promises to bring bloody chaos to the streets of America's cities. It's a situation Meredith and his volunteer army, "The First
Brigade," mean to exploit, as they stand poised to reap the benefits of widespread anger, disillusionment, hatred and fear. It's a case government prosecutor
Hank Sutherland is expected to win. But there are questions and inconsistencies haunting the principled attorney.
And the deeper Sutherland digs, the more evidence he uncovers of a devastating conspiracy-insidious corruption that is weaving its way secretly and relentlessly into the very fabric of American life to strangle the freedoms and the future of the nation.
A thinking person's thriller, Richard Herman's AGAINST ALL ENEMIES is a powerful, brilliantly imagined and almost excruciatingly suspenseful work of fiction that takes a sober and chilling look at an all-too-possible tomorrow, and at the greatest peril of all to a nation's existence: the fire that burns within.
