This was a terrific read, and for the book I’d give it 5 stars (or very close to it), but the editing issues drop that rating to a 4. No one is perfect, and errors can be missed by the best of editors, but this one was pretty bad in the error department. Hopefully, it is just the Kindle Unlimited Version that has the errors, and that purchased books might be error-free. With our country becoming so polarized after the last election, this book hit on a lot of those same nerves, and could be totally plausible which is very frightening. This book will stay with me a long time, as it was that good.

If you like thrillers this book is for you. The 51st Directive was signed by President George Bush after 9/11 (actually on May 4, 2007). This provides the way to maintain government after a catastrophic event. I read on another site that no one really knows the full extent of this directive and even Congressmen have not been allowed to view the text. This story begins when a letter is sent to the FBI starting with "I am dead", and leads FBI agent, Erica Brewer, and Washing DC detective, Sam Marco, on a chase with them as the prey. The highest officials in the government are corrupt and plan to take over the government to remake it into a government following their ideologies. A good read.
