- Summary:
- Welcome to America in 2029... A depression economy. A delayed presidential election. A series of terrorist attacks. And a president who will do anything to win. 2029 is a gripping political thriller portrayed through the lens of a single family, the Thatchers. Ryan is a Marine who was discharged for saving the wrong lives. Heather is a medical student who subverts her country's new population policies and steals off to the woods to have her birth control implants illegally removed. Breanna and Mark--both at the top of their class--may lose their college scholarships. Their father, James, works in what may soon be illegal--a second job. Their mother, Julie, is being followed. As Ryan's clandestine activities draw the wrath of the authorities, each family member faces a stark choice. But what does a good citizen do when compromise is no longer an option? Gripping and provocative, 2029 is more than an action-packed thrill ride. It is an eerily prophetic novel that will stay with you long after the final moment of suspense.
