Overview

Roman Mason was born to change the world. Deeply disturbed by the state of American politics, he emerges from isolation to assemble his team of loyal activists and announces a new mission. Convinced that American democracy cannot survive without a fundamental restructuring of the political system, they build an independent movement from the ground up, uniting libertarians on the right and progressives on the left. They establish a network of community centers dedicated to helping those forgotten by a system where the dominant parties cater to the needs and desires of the elite. The growing movement attracts new members, including a clandestine antiwar organization dedicated to helping dissenters and deserting soldiers to escape persecution or imprisonment by taking a new identity and relocating. Political mastermind John Sinclair, charged with orchestrating congressional campaigns, uncovers a scandal with the power to rock both parties to their roots. Upon his death, operative Simon Juneau left behind a file documenting widespread corruption at the highest levels of public office. As momentum builds the movement comes under attack and Mason discovers that Homeland Security is behind the campaign. Several members of the core group are abducted and detained without legal recourse. Rome escapes to Canada and applies for political asylum. The movement releases the Juneau file along with a detailed account of the purge, leading to congressional hearings, widespread indictments and full vindication. Rome emerges as an American hero but soon finds his organization once again under attack. Disbanding the core group, he receives an invitation to a meeting of elites at Hohenzollern Castle in Germany. He recruits the hacker group Anonymous and with his old friend, Sinclair, determines to expose the world's most powerful and corrupting organization. In the tradition of grand conspiracy novels, A Patriot Dirge will leave you exhausted and yearning for more.
