Overview

The gripping story of one man's fight for survival as a divided superpower stands on the brink of a bloody civil war. It's July 2030. The American States are no longer united, as the 'Tea Party' Republicans have seceded from the Union to form a new nation, the Confederated Christian States of America. For a decade the two ideological rivals have faced off against each other across the intra-American frontier. It's an uneasy truce that begins to crumble as a tragic incident pushes both sides to the very brink. Joshua Hamilton is a liberal with a history of political activism. Regarded as a traitor by the ultra-conservative population of the Arizona Strip where he lives, he has been blacklisted by the government security apparatus. His plans to cross the border to start a new life in the remnant United States are thrown into disarray when the brutal murder of a friend forces him to re-evaluate his priorities. As America creeps ever closer to a potentially catastrophic civil war he finds himself embroiled in a high risk mission. If the operation succeeds he will gain everything he desires. If it fails, his life will be over. From the author of the much acclaimed THE WAR OF ZERO-SUM, this is a fast moving thriller that will grip you from the first page to the last.

Author Information

Mark Lynch, who has lived in Northern Ireland all his life, studied History & Politics at Queen's University Belfast and maintains a keen interest in both of these subjects. He currently works as an office administrator in Belfast city centre and enjoys reading both fiction and non-fiction, but is particularly keen on the science fiction genre and its sub genres, such as alternative history and space colonisation. He has been interested in Irish history for many years and has long held an ambition to write a novel about the situation in Northern Ireland, something different from the standard stories set during the Troubles, hence 'The War of Zero-Sum.' Following the publication of 'American Nemesis', he is presently working on the follow-up to 'The War of Zero-Sum.'
