Publisher's Synopsis
Billionaire playboy, John Carlisle, fulfilled his political ambitions in becoming the President of the United States. He believes he can negotiate political gains as he did successfully in the business world. But he finds compromising with five-hundred-thirty-five congressmen...frustrating, a roadblock in his desire to create a legacy as the greatest president in the country's history. Carlisle befriends Vladimir Petroff, dictator of Russia, fulfilling a campaign promise to develop greater cooperation between the two super powers. When invited by Petroff to Russia, the shrewd former head of the KGB, provides the President with sexual pleasures playing on the weakness of his counterpart. Threatened to release video and photos of the President, Carlisle finds himself in a compromising position. Either cooperating with the Russian dictator or resigning in disgrace. Carlisle is convinced by Petroff, that he can become the sovereign leader of the United States by disbanding Congress, the Supreme Court and controlling the armed forces through subversive groups developed through a network of spies reaching deep into the political structure of the United States. Carlisle is faced with choosing to lead in the destruction of democracy, and becoming supreme leader, or rolling the dice and admitting his fall from grace to the American people.
