Satisfaction Guaranteed. A U.S. President with outward contempt for the Founding Fathers and the limits of the U.S. Constitution whose administration is rocked by scandals. The United States of America with an electorate more polarized than in any time in modern history. The administration is determined to eradicate its political enemies, especially the Tea Party-orders unconstitutional actions against common citizens including warrantless arrests of Tea Party members in Texas. The Governor of Texas, the self-described mortal enemy of the president directs a legendary Texas Ranger to rescue a Tea Party organizer from the clutches of federal agents. The resulting struggle sets the stage for a cataclysmic power struggle between officials in Austin resulting in the arrest warrants of duly elected state officials. As the country hurtles towards the most serious Constitutional crisis since 1860, the President orders a raid to arrest Texas' governor. But the raid goes horribly awry, Texas' borders are closed and a blockade on the Gulf of Mexico is established. Texas responds by cutting off oil supplies to the rest of the country and mobilizing the Texas National Guard and Texas Militia to take control of all Texas military bases. The rest of the country and the world watch in awe and despair as the "Texas Crisis" unfolds, affecting world financial markets amid skyrocketing fuel prices. The Texas legislature sends a referendum for Independence to the people of Texas and the president orders the vote stopped-at all costs as he suspends the 2nd Amendment and declares martial law. Texas is now A STATE OF TREASON.
?A State of Treason? by Dave Roberts is a fast-moving, action-packed story of a spiraling-out-of-control clash between Texas and the federal government and ends in a crisis threatening to unravel the nation.
After President Obama won re-election there was talk in some states of secession. ?A State of Treason? provides a clear portrait of how that might come about if it were to happen. The novel also gives a clear look at Texas itself and how Texans think ? a glimpse that is much different than how citizens of the remaining 49 view their states.
This novel, like its predecessor (?Patriots of Treason?), also gives an inside look at the Tea Party at the grass roots and what motivates patriots to join the ranks of this movement and what its members think about the federal government, the IRS, DHS and the mainstream political parties.
It is fascinating what happens when a state moves towards independence and succession and the issues that spring forth as the federal government responds. Is it right for the federal government to withhold Social Security, food stamps and federal pensions payments from Texans, is it right for Texans to seize federal military bases, is it an act of war for a Texas Air National Guard aircraft to shoot down a federal plane, and is it a unconstitutional act of treason to secede from the union.
Roberts does an excellent job presenting these issues and airing them out fully. And the reason the author can examine such issues with precision is that he is active in politics and the movement for Texas Independence and has been a speaker at Tea Party events.
Not only is ?A State of Treason? a can?t-put-down book but it is a book that will keep your mind churning days after you finish it, wondering how much of the plot is real or could be real and whether you really want to know the difference.
