About the Book

Horrific predicaments and tragedies take their toll on Maria McHale and Joseph Bishop. Furious that the United States has refused to provide assistance following an abrupt climate change that is devastating Europe, an environmental terrorist group plants atomic bombs throughout the United States. The first detonation at a Republican convention kills the president, but also kills Maria's son and mother. Joe becomes President. Craving vengeance, Maria wants Joe to retaliate. Joe is more concerned with restoring peace and preserving humanity. He capitulates to the terrorists demands. Is Joe a a wise and prudent leader or a weakling, a coward, or worst a traitor? Has Maria despair driven her insane? The question is not whether their marriage will survive, but rather will they, their nation, or humanity survive.
About the Author: Homer R. Guy was born in 1946 in Kiowa County, Oklahoma where he grew up as a Quaker on a small family farm. Torn between theology and science, he attended a Methodist University majoring in physics and mathematics. He graduated from Oklahoma City University in 1968 at the height of the Viet Nam war then entered graduate school at the University of Illinois where he received his Ph.D. in biophysics. His principal research interests involved molecular mechanisms of the nervous system. During his postdoctoral fellowship at the University of New York at Albany, he began developing three-dimensional structural models of the ion channels responsible for electrical activity of nerve and muscle cells. He served as a Lieutenant in the Navy Medical Services Corp stationed at the Armed Services Radiobiology Research Institute on the grounds of the Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland. Dr. Guy left the Navy in 1980 and moved across the street to the National Institutes of Health. He eventually became a principal investigator in the National Cancer Institute where he served as Chief of the Computational Structural Biology Section of the Lab of Cell Biology. His best known work at NIH involved structural and functional models of voltage-gated ion channels. An internationally respected scientist, Dr. Guy has 94 scientific publications with 3000 citations, made presentations in 14 countries on four continents, and served as the North American editor of the international journal Receptors and Channels. He retired from NIH in 2010 to write science-related fiction in the village of Cochiti Lake, NM on the Pueblo de Cochiti Reservation west of Santa Fe, where he resides with his wife and son.
