520 | _aCongressional aide Jim Dillon discovered a little known provision in the U.S. Constitution and it plunged the federal government into chaos. Now he struggles to gain control over the extraordinary events his actions precipitated: volunteering for the defense team at the court marshal of Admiral Ray Billings, who disregarded a presidential order by leading an assault on foreign terrorists. At the same time, in the South Pacific, a fanatic plans to exploit the weaknesses of an American government in upheaval by brutally shedding American blood and taking innocent citizens hostage. But nothing will prevent a great nation from doing what is right, no matter what the price, not when the honor and the future of America is at stake. --Cover. | ||
