Suppose that in order to avoid a civil war Abraham Lincoln had allowed the South to secede, and that for 120 years two separate nations...the United States and the Confederacy...have developed side by side. Suppose that in 1981 the Confederacy, a totalitarium Utopia under a maniacally brilliant leader, threatens the security of the U.S. Suppose that in that year the President of the U.S. decides the threa can be countered only by having his Southern counterpart assassinated. This is the premise of A More Perfect Union. The man chosen to be the assassin is Cordell Vance, a Southerner by birth, raised in New England, ex-army officer (thrown out) in Southeast Asia, now free-lancing as a photographer in a Colorado resort town. The story covers his infiltration of the Confederacy, his success in establishing himself in a business there, his falling in love and his desperate efforts to find the right moment to perform his mission. 375 pages.
