The Armageddon Project - Rilegato

From the boulevards of Paris to the sands of Iraq to the halls of Congress, this page turner is a riveting cautionary tale which resonates forcefully with contemporary political events.

A bombing in a Paris church lands American journalist Sam Preston in the story of a lifetimeif only he can survive. The attack leads Sam to a group of Assyrian Christians. Their colorful leader-in-exile, Rafat Ganjibar, aims to form a breakaway Assyrian Republic in the oil- rich lands of northwestern Iraq, with the help of some powerful supportersthe American Evangelical community, the Israelis, and even U.S. President Jack Ritter. Sam suspects the President and his allies are acting secretlyand illegallyto advance and fund this movement.

Invited to the White House to report on a performance by Princess Tawana, a charismatic Jazz singer enrolled by the Christian Fundamentalists to champion their cause, Sam meets a born-again U.S. Army General. As the shocking details of the "Armageddon Project" begin to fall into place, Sam realizes the end is indeed nearfor him.

Now Sam is a prime target for the C.I.A., the French Intelligence, and the Israeli Mossad, who dispatch a sexy El Al stewardess to use any means necessary to stop him. To uncover the story and stay alive, he uses his reporter's instincts and the unwitting help of his foolish brother-in-law, who becomes an unlikely savior in the nick of time. From Paris' Latin Quarter to the Italian Riviera, from the Swiss banking capital of Zurich to England's Dover Castle, Sam races to reveal the truth before the "Armageddon Project" triggers a real apocalypse in the Middle East.
