    About this ebook

    An assassination attempt, an assassination, and the murder of a politicians wife begin a chain of events.
    Three days until the first retaliatory response using a weapon not used in 70 years.
    Politics as usual will never be the same, or will it?
    Another terrorist attack misses its target.
    The response uses modern and old captured weapons.

    Author

    Stephen Brandon

    I've loved westerns and science fiction since I picked up my first book at the public library. I've been writing on my computer for years. I never planned on any of my stories being published, just to be read by myself, family, and friends. The base journal is on forty spreadsheets with links to about a thousand files of short one day paragraphs plus other stories. {My claim to fame, written by someone else. Thanks.} "As an earthbound retiree, Stephen writes mostly science fiction and short stories. He is a voracious reader and has written for a few years, publishing his stories on Smashwords."
