The Salvation Project

A Juicy, Thought-Provoking Political ThrillerLatina-American Isabel Aragon “Tenny” Tennyson is brilliant, charismatic, and very rich... and she's president of the United States running for reelection. Her opponent is a too-handsome-to-be-true congressman who doesn’t realize he’s been set up to be used by an international conspiracy bent on taking control of the United States.

The murderous cabal, which calls itself the Salvation Project, operates in the shadows, avoiding detection by U.S. intelligence. Originally formed to advance proposals to slow global warming, the Salvation Project evolved into a force willing to do anything to overthrow elected governments, including assassination. Control of the White House is its ultimate target. Unaware of this threat, Tenny campaigns as if she is running in a normal presidential election, her guard down and her very life dangerously exposed.

The “Conjures positive memories of great political thrillers of the past such as Richard Condon's The Manchurian Candidate or Steven King's The Dead Zone,” says Pacific Reviews.

“The political thriller of the year,” says Midwest Reviews.

“A riveting, topical storyline that steadily builds tension and suspense," says Publisher’s Weekly’s BookLife.

Like all of Rothstein’s novels, The Salvation Project will keep you guessing and leave you thinking.

The Salvation Project is Book Two in The Latina President Political Thriller trilogy.

"The Salvation Project" by Joe Rothstein is a thrilling ride, made all the more enjoyable by the author's evident political knowledge and experience. The book's well-paced narrative keeps you hooked, and Rothstein's writing style adds an extra layer of enjoyment.

The characters are compelling, and the incorporation of an intriguing conspiracy angle adds depth to the storyline. Rothstein's ability to weave politics, pacing, and character development together creates a captivating reading experience. If you're into political thrillers with a well-executed conspiracy twist, "The Salvation Project" hits the mark.

I'd like to express my gratitude for having received an online copy of this book in exchange for my honest opinion.

This is an excellent book, made more enjoyable by the author's superior political knowledge and experience. President Tennyson's life and adventures also show imagination and a highly skilled writing style. The book is well paced and once begun, difficult to put down. I'm hopeful that we'll see more of "Tenny" and the cast of characters soon, as we did when this book followed "The Latina President and The Conspiracy to Destroy Her".

Second book in the series makes me want to back and read the first. Especially timely book during an election year and during a time when many voters are feeling left out of the election process. I received an advanced digital copy of this book from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

Very good book with excellent characters. Some elements
are a bit too politically 'correct' for my liking. The underlying
premise is driven by that despite the fact the President
Tennison is a solid, strong character. I think if I was a woman
I would like the story and book more.

Definitely worth reading. The conspiracy angle is well done.

Wow Wow Wow

I’m pretty sure these things really do happen at the White House. Never a dull moment. So much betrayal, conspiracy and, no trust. The lengths they go through to try to kill candidates. A big shout out to the Latina President , she’s a badass to putting everyone in their place. I thoroughly enjoyed this and can’t wait to read the next one.

Unfortunately after reading about a third of this book I chose to discontinue reading as I found little interest in continuing, not what I expected.. 3 stars

My thanks to the sponsors of this book’s Goodreads giveaway for the opportunity to read this book. Just not a good match for me.
