Fake Lies! (Paperback) | Released: 25 Sep 2017

Our Nation's Life is at Stake! In this tantalizing tale of ruthless exploitation that could easily be titled The Wolf and The Rabbits, the perpetrator of crimes may be known, but the weapons he will use to shackle millions of people are a mystery the likes of Christie and Simenon would struggle to match. In a chain of events that are perfectly logical but entirely unexpected, Conan Cain, a real estate mogul from New York, will stop at nothing -including betraying his country to its most dangerous global enemy- to use the office of the Presidency to stuff his pockets with millions of dollars while Democracy totters as an innocent bystander. Due to the sleuthing of a retired journalist who limps on a cane whose shaft contains a powerful digital antenna that can detect the President's conversations from outside the White House, our principled but perishable democracy is saved from being ruled by a greedy tyrant and his aquisitive cronies. Anyone with a penchant for politics and a curiosity of what America's future beholds will be mesmerized by this timely exposé that seesaws between chuckling satire and chilling savagery to the last word. Who knows what else this brave book may do? A Flit through the Pages . . . Hod Hawksbill, a retired journalist who uses his cane's antenna to tape President Conan Cain's conversations from outside the Oval Office, exposes how Cain conspired with Russia to rig the 2016 election and how Cain uses the Presidency to enrich himself at the expense of the public. When Cain's popularity plummets the Republicans conspire to impeach him before the mid-term elections. The Democrats, sensing the plot, acquit Cain. Vice President Rufus Shilling poisons the President, permanently disabling him. Shilling, his attorneys obstructing justice at every turn, succeeds President Cain via Amendment 25 -but the public knows! After the mid-terms Shilling is impeached and a woman becomes President (hint: it's not former Secretary of State Shillery Mitten).
