The seventeen tales in this volume make up a broad literary landscape...from drones carrying pure-hydrogen nuclear weapons to man-eating bears...and from an 'accidental, high-priced assassin to treason and succession in the White House. If you've ever wondered what happens when home-invaders meet up with the 'business end' of a twelve-gauge shotgun, or how a 'First Lady' disposes of a treasonous President, you've come to the right place.
