Republic: A Novel of the Future of America - Tapa blanda

From an author described as "one of America's criminally neglected authors," Republic is a surprise hit described by readers as "breath-taking," "riveting," and "haunting." Ken Murphy is a 45 year-old widower and senior manager at a computer chip manufacturer in quiet Highview, West Virginia. The local economy is thrown into a tailspin when the plant is suddenly shut down. Murphy must fight for healthcare for his terminally ill son. As he tries to save his son's life, he is dragged into a deeper conflict between the forces that are ripping our nation apart. In the midst of massive unemployment, an aggressive tone deaf government, terrorism and war, Ken Murphy will sacrifice everything for his family, but will that be enough?
