Push Back

About the Book

TERRORISTS ARE HERE - NOW! A hundred have crossed the Mexican border to attack us where we live and work with bombs, explosives, and sniper attacks. Their trump cards are two nuclear weapons.

Push Back is ripped from tomorrow's headlines. To protect us from terrorist attacks, American foreign policy pushes democracy and, if necessary, regime changes in other countries. In order to protect themselves, foreign governments co-opt jihadists from many Islamic countries, train and equip them and then, turn them loose in the United States. The administration of newly-elected President Janet Sampson is totally unprepared to deal with America's worst nightmare, terrorists in our midst. Schools and businesses close. People flee large cities. The Stock Exchange closes. Chaos descends upon an America that is in the grip of the most contagious disease of all - fear.
