Final Approval Timothy J. Korzep 1st edition

Against a backdrop of murder, international skullduggery and Beltway intrigue, this political thriller set in an unhinged world that takes genetic experimentation, religious zealotry, germ warfare and urban riots for granted traces the ascent of Truth-Party nominee Thomas Reichardt. During his quest for the Presidency, he discovers the secret 21 File and the key to the country's social future, setting in motion an avalanche of confrontation, both armed and disarming. Reichardt's got powerful allies: Larry Blidener, the shrewd political warrior; retired General Roman, a brilliant soldier; a loving wife and family; Crystal Malone, a maverick empire-builder; and his corporate colleagues at R. S. T., developers of next-century computer technology. But he's also bedeviled by devious enemies: a ruthless Senator, a sleek seductress, and a well-oiled political machine that seeks to destroy him without prejudice. Only the Truth candidate understands the Final Approval that binds them all.
