The Night America Broke
Four assassinations. Two cities. One night that leaves America searching for a single enemy.
President Victor Rennick and Vice President Helena Kessler are murdered in Washington. Minutes away in political time, newly nominated presidential candidate Eamon Parnell and his running mate, Danica Rowell, are assassinated in Philadelphia.
The country sees one coordinated attack.
The evidence refuses to cooperate.
With the line of succession shattered, Speaker Meredith Fenway is forced into the presidency she never sought. While military pressure builds against the hostile nation of Dorevak, FBI investigator Linnea Fossett begins pulling apart what everyone assumes belongs together. Intelligence analyst Nisha Varma discovers that uncertainty is being stripped from the reports reaching the highest levels of government. Journalist Claudia Deane uncovers corruption surrounding the dead president's family-but refuses to turn corruption into murder without proof.
And as the investigation fractures into separate truths, a replacement presidential ticket must somehow campaign through grief, conspiracy theories, foreign manipulation, and a country increasingly convinced that any complicated answer must be a lie.
Because the four murders are connected by one terrifying fact:
They are not the work of one conspiracy.
The Night America Broke is a political thriller about assassination, succession, war, corruption, intelligence, and the dangerous distance between what a nation believes and what the evidence can actually prove.
