Cabal of Improbable Spies

     Written before the events of Jan. 6, 2021, the action in this satirical slant on American politics begins when a small, balding man is mistaken for eccentric cybersecurity genius Jason Oglethorpe.  Both quickly become embroiled in conflicting plots by the Russians and Chinese to conquer the US.  Jason is abducted and imprisoned in Moscow to download cyberdefense secrets from his brain, but he devises an ingenious escape plan carried out with a brilliant, ravishing Russian agent.

     After a traitorous New Jersey dentist misses his Atlantic rendezvous with a Russian nuclear submarine (to transport the bodies of his non-paying patients to a cutting-edge Russian brain research lab), the sub and its nuclear missile are captured by the US Navy.  The Russian warhead is hunkered in a bunker down in Texas and nearly forgotten by the unstable US President who has lost re-election. Then by treasonous tampering, he wins re-re-election and must follow Russian demands to display the deadly warhead at his State of the Union address.

     Jason and his cabal try to derail the monomaniacal President's coup and stop him from seizing power as the King of America for Life.  But thwarting the sinister plans of Russia and China to overthrow America challenges their brilliant minds to the utmost……and brings the story to its unexpected conclusion.
