The Trial of Evan Gage



     In October 1998, a nuclear exchange takes place on the 
Kazakhstan/Chinese border.  Then in December, a mentally
disturbed drifter named Evan Gage is arrested for the murder
of the newly elected governor of Texas and his family.

     After a speedy trial, Gage, now a convicted killer, escapes,
but no one seems to care. Instead officials are occupied with
the intense search for a former CIA director's son who
disappeared on a Black Op.  And with the United States on the
brink of a major war, President John William Pearson, III, seems
more focused on his own secret agenda.

     What's going on?

     Can all of these incidents possibly be connected?

Incident at Tybee Island

The first sequel to The Trial of Evan Gage

     A nuclear device is missing. Members of al Qaeda are the prime suspects. The only question remaining is where and when are the terrorists going to detonate the bomb?

Fact: On the night of February 5, 1958, a B-47 bomber on a simulated combat mission out of Homestead Air Force base in Florida was involved in a mid-air collision with a fighter jet escort off the coast of Georgia. The fighter pilot ejected safely, but to save the badly damaged B-47, the nuclear bomb it carried was jettisoned into the Atlantic Ocean somewhere near Tybee Island. In the months that followed, the Air Force tried but failed to locate the bomb. Since there was no triggering mechanism to arm the bomb, the decision was finally made to abandon the search. Over the years that followed, Tybee Island became increasingly fashionable with vacationers, and with them the population and construction grew. So much so, that in 2002, the Air Force was asked to search again for the bomb. The thought that a nuclear device could still be so close to expensive beachfront property did not sit well with either developers or homeowners.

Fiction: (or is it?) After the events of 9/11/2001, the renewed search for the bomb by the Air Force takes on new meaning. "Since 1958 we've put men on the moon, discovered DNA and cloned a sheep," remarks a member of the Air Force crew assigned to the mission. "How tough can this be?" The good news: With all the advances in technology, locating the bomb is now relatively easy. The bad news: It soon becomes obvious that someone has beaten them to it. And recently, too. For despite lying on the seabed for forty-four years, with the right equipment to make it active, the bomb is still as powerful as ever. Flying passenger aircraft into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon is one thing. A nuclear bomb in the wrong hands is quite another.

In this first sequel to The Trial of Evan Gage, the reader will again meet some familiar characters. From Georgia to Florida, Texas to Pennsylvania, a Presidential campaign contributor, a former KGB agent and a homegrown militant all add to the mix. And why is the British Secret Service taking such a sudden interest? So when the FBI, CIA and everyone else involved are chasing the obvious, how could a terrorist's wife be the key? In the end, no one comes close to predicting the terrorists' eventual target, but stopping them becomes the one and only goal. It's a race against time. Or will part of the United States cease to exist? With a few surprises along the way, the final outcome isn't what anyone expected.
