Do you have children? Do you expect the American dream will be theirs as it was yours? Benjamin Franklin, upon being asked what kind of government the Continental Congress had decided upon, replied, “A republic, if you can keep it.” For more than two centuries we did well, building a nation for the world to admire. Now we are shepherding its decline.

If she fails to gain understanding, a space shuttle with her husband aboard will be sent crashing into the International Space Station. She and a handsome priest sent by the Vatican to investigate a pattern of religious murders pursue the truth to London and Beirut, aware that the clock is ticking and that unless they succeed, the shuttle and whatever evil rides within it will take off as scheduled. | |  | | The Exclusion Zone

Hiding on the island are four desperate men awaiting a visit by the Queen of England. Their purpose: to make sure she does not leave alive.
