Seller's Description:
Like New. Never read. Light shelf wear on cover. No creases or bends. Clean & crisp. "Booklist: Veteran investigative reporter, Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist, and host for the national radio show Watch on Washington, Anderson certainly has his finger on the pulse of America, a position he puts to good use in his fiction. In his latest thriller, he slyly links the fast-approaching end of the millennium with the Second Coming, extraterrestrials, and the fate of our violent and destructive species. He begins with a classic rural UFO abduction, then shifts to the streets of Washington, D.C. It's 1999, and alien powers have concluded that the human species has become too morally degenerate to live. A renegade alien attempts to visit the president to warn him of the impending demise of the human race, but fails to accomplish his mission. Sent away by a bored White House security guard, he's promptly mugged by a gangbanger named Ghost who makes off with the alien's diabolical mind-control device. While the now invincible Ghost goes on a rampage, a supersecret government agency responsible for suppressing information about extraterrestrials springs into action, and soon doctors, cops, a street preacher, and a cokehead socialite are all caught in the web of deceit. There's plenty of action and lots to ponder here, but hokum and self-aggrandizement almost scuttle the story once Anderson introduces his hero: a longtime Washington columnist named Mick Aaronson.
