American Twilight: A Democracy Franchise Thriller

By Brian Clark

American democracy was never stolen.
It was purchased.

Investigative journalist Sarah Chen has spent her career exposing the cracks in the American political system. But when Senator Alan Mitchell collapses dead during a high-profile fundraiser-and federal agencies rush to call it "natural causes"-Sarah uncovers something far darker than corruption.

Six corporations.
Six CEOs.
One country for sale.

What begins as a suspicious death unravels into a terrifying truth: America's elections, voting machines, redistricting maps, media ownership, and even national security have been quietly consolidated under the control of The Six-a consortium of billionaires who don't need to break the law because they own it.

As Sarah joins forces with a rogue data analyst and a disgraced political operative, she discovers:

voting machines engineered by a former NSA cyber-unit director

districts mathematically designed to eliminate competitive elections

a private meeting where America's next decade is planned by unelected elites

and an algorithm capable of adjusting election outcomes while remaining undetectable

The deeper she digs, the clearer the truth becomes:
Democracy isn't dying... it's already dead. And the American people never noticed the moment it stopped breathing.

Now Sarah must decide whether to expose the system-risking prison, her daughter, and her life-or accept the quiet truth behind American twilight: a nation drifting between democracy and something far more controlled.

A gripping, devastating political thriller for fans of House of Cards, Homeland, and The Night Agent.
A story about power, truth, and the cost of resisting a system designed to never lose.
