State of the Union — David Callahan

Lt. Zachary Turzin, former Special Forces commando and a decorated veteran of the Gulf War, has just accepted a top-level position inside the Pentagon. But he faces his most dangerous battle when he uncovers shocking evidence of a shadow government within the government. Two of the most powerful men in Washington--one a politician, the other Turzin's commander--have struck a secret alliance. Partners to a chilling criminal conspiracy that stretches back thirty years, they are now on the threshold of seizing total control.

In a time of treachery, betrayal, and ruthless ambition...in a world where a president's weakness and a woman's love could prove fatal, Turzin is sworn to bring his nation back from the brink of hell--with only his honor and his instincts to guide him.
