Leverage Point

They didn't kill the president. They built him a world to live in.

The most powerful man on earth is failing — his judgment slipping, his finger still on everything — and the circle around him has decided, every single day, to cover it up rather than give up what his power buys them.

A handful of people decide they can't wait for the cover-up to end in catastrophe.

A general who resigned her commission rather than follow an unlawful order. An engineer who can build anything. A doctor bound by an oath she can't put down. An agent torn between the man and the office. Together they commit a crime to save a country: they take the president, and they hold him inside a perfect simulation of the White House — a fake Oval Office, a fabricated press corps, a voice farm, a chief executive generated by a machine — while the lawful machinery of the Twenty-Fifth Amendment grinds toward removal.

It's supposed to take eleven days. It takes fifty-three.

And the longer the lie runs, the more it costs.

A Moscow analyst notices the signal is too clean to be a sick man. A veteran reporter and the press aide he once trained start pulling a thread that doesn't lose its nerve. Inside the compound, the people holding the line discover that the danger they removed was never only one man — it was the thing he built, and that thing is still out there, still loyal, and coming for them.

Leverage Point is a relentless, morally serious political thriller for readers who like their suspense with a conscience. It does not name a party and does not take a side — it puts you inside the impossible choice and refuses to make it easy.

For readers of Vince Flynn, Brad Meltzer, and Daniel Silva — with the speculative ambition of World War Z and Station Eleven.

Book One of the Deep State Novels. A complete, self-contained thriller that opens a trilogy.
