Now back in print, the prophetic thriller from "the best writer of intelligence and political novels in the world" ("The Boston Globe") When Charles McCarry's "The Better Angels" was first published almost 30 years ago, its premise--that terrorists would use passenger-filled airliners as tools of terror--seemed incredible. In retrospect, the novel would prove to be prophetic. "The Better Angels" takes place in an election year close to the turn of the century in a deeply polarized America. The presidential race matches a tall, lantern-jawed liberal to a far-right former businessman with deep ties to the energy industry. Meanwhile, Islamic terrorists led by an oil-rich Arab prince, desperate to acquire nuclear bombs to use against Israel or major American cities, disrupt the presidential campaign through a series of bloody suicide bombing. Finally the election itself is stolen, as one side hacks into computerized voting systems to change the tallies in key states. From the writer the "New York Times Book Review" called "the genuine article," "The Better Angels" is a thrilling and relevant masterwork.
