The Seed - Paperback

by Jeff Shiring (Author)

With a virus ravaging the globe and pushing the world's governments and America's institutions past the breaking point, outgoing Senate Majority Leader John Angelbaum recruits his protégé, Chase Porter, to run for his seat. But the idealistic young district attorney soon comes to realize that the two have very different ideas about duty to country--and that what Angelbaum needs most from him is blind loyalty to a soon-to-be-discovered plan to establish a radical new world order.

Meanwhile, Angelbaum's daughter Briana, a lobbyist for the pharmaceutical company leading the race for a vaccine, pushes the already-sinking government for more and more funding. But when brilliant autistic microbiologist Melana Hope discovers that the virus may have been engineered--and Briana discovers that her father may be in on the plot for world supremacy--loyalties are pushed to their very limits.

All the while, "the Trinity"--a team of international power players whose ambition knows no limits--watches the crumbling of government's basic tenets with great satisfaction. The weaker the nations of the world become, the more powerful the Trinity becomes--and the closer they get to the realization of their terrifying dream.

In book one of the End of Times trilogy, world regimes are on a collision course, and humanity is about to learn that there are far worse things than war.
