About the book
About The Seed - An Ironic Political Thriller
The new U.S. President is a ruthless scoundrel. His activist son, Diego, discovers his father conspired with the CEO of a major oil company, and the dictator of Venezuela to manipulate the oil markets, causing high gas prices, and ensuring his election as a drill friendly president. Diego's environmental action group exposes the President's illegal act, unleashing a firestorm of criticism against the president, and several nasty murder attempts against Diego by the big oil CEO. The President's troubles only increase as a mistress comes forward, claiming to be carrying his child; his wife sues for divorce; and the dictator of Venezuela invades neighboring countries to control their oil, and threatens the U S with an attack of donated North Korean nuclear missiles if the U S tries to intervene. And this is only a small part of this tangled tale of intrigue and struggle for power. Diego and the President each try to take control of this out of control situation. But many surprising twists and turns finally lead to an unexpected resolution.
