Produktbeschreibung
In this speculative socio-political novel, a prestigious think tank-The Cassandra Group-led by a military historian general is aiding the president of the United States behind the scenes in sensitive negotiations with a foreign leader. As part of the plan, three brilliant young predictive historians in the Cassandra Group are assigned to devise a way to uncover the foreign nation's hidden ICBM launch sites. Cassandra has devised a way to locate these "missing" sites by supporting a spin-off group called The Searchers composed mostly of women with highly unusual talents and time-tested old fashioned strategies. But they work. Too well, perhaps. Then bad stuff happens and everything gets messy as each hidden launch site is located. Is The Cassandra Group helping or merely meddling with history? Does this information help with the president's negotiations? Or is it too late? Will both countries be hit hard? The Cassandra Group will tell you its truth-but you may not want to believe it. Shame on you.
