Produktbeschreibung

Since the passage of NAFTA in 1993, thousands of Maquiladoras along the U.S. / Mexico border have been spewing their toxic waste into the Rio Grande River. From that quagmire, a plague has erupted causing a quarantine of Mexico.

The plague is being allowed to run rampant by Mexican President DeMarta, using it as a cause to declare Marshall Law, postponing the coming elections in which the opposition party was projected to win.

U.S. President E.B. Edwards needs DeMarta and his PDR party to remain in power. DeMarta is kicking back a billion dollars a year to the U.S. President to keep the border "porous".

In that murky environment, Paul's daughter is kidnapped by drug dealers intent on using her to slip out of the country by passing through a checkpoint on the border supervised by Paul's son, thereby escaping the plague. Paul's singular problem, to rescue his daughter, broadens to encompass how to bring down the leaders of two countries willing to sacrifice millions of innocent lives in order to hold onto the reins of power.

Autorenporträt

BIOGRAPHY

Mr. Weiss attended Central High School, at the time recognized as the top High School academically in the U.S. He then attended Drexel University where he gained a BS in History, Temple University where he earned an MA in Economics and the University of Pennsylvania where he received an MA in International Affairs. Those studies provided him with unique insights in the realm of foreign policy, military capabilities, détente, and trade.

He has been a writer for forty plus years and has penned hundreds of articles on social, political, and economic issues. He has written position papers for the Carter and Clinton Administrations and his work on social issues has received recognition directly from the office of the President of México. He speaks regularly with Noam Chomsky on political, economic, cultural, and military issues.

Mr. Weiss writes political, military, economic and scientific thrillers. There are now twelve books in the Paul Decker series. All his stories come right off the front pages of the major magazines and newspapers but none of his plots has ever found their way into novel before. His characters are ones readers can relate to: flawed, not superheroes. His stories do not require a leap of faith or use deus ex machina.

Finally, he has written a stage play, "Einstein at the Guten Zeiten (good times) Beer Garden, and an urban horror novel: "The Art of Theft", a modern day version of "The Picture of Dorian Grey" by Oscar Wilde.
