When the unthinkable happens ... what happens next? A nuclear weapon destroys Lower Manhattan. A million people die. Millions more flee for their lives. The crisis has only begun. President William Orwell Steele labors to cope with the aftermath of an unprecedented terrorist attack, while a host of ordinary Americans struggles merely to survive in a world where everything has changed. From the corridors of power to the squalor of refugee camps, from world capitols to the lawless frontiers of Pakistan, from economic collapse to armed rebellion, the impact of the May Day attack swiftly spreads to every aspect of society and every corner of the globe. Thoughtful, intelligent, and wildly entertaining, May Day - Book One of American Sulla solidly establishes author Thom Stark as the master of disaster. The most ambitious thriller in decades, the first book in the American Sulla trilogy will leave you cheering the debut of a major new talent.
