And in what form will it be?In Los Angeles a black prostitute PEPPER has stolen a USB flash drive from thelaptop of an influential white nationalist politician because he refused pay her for sex.But unknown to Pepper, the flash drive is encrypted with a detailed outline foranother insurrection designed by a group of ultra conservative white supremacistpoliticians in an effort to salvage dwindling white influence and political power.Known as the Alice Plan, it sets forth the protocols for the establishment of a new'whites only' English speaking republic to be located on foreign soil. The Alice Plancalls for US corporations to divest themselves of any and all financial interests inAmerica, and to redirect those resources to finance the building of the new republicwhile gradually relocating the entire white population out of America by the end of2050.Pepper's efforts to blackmail the politician for money are met with deaththreats . So she hires a white disabled ex-cop TERRY C. TAYLOR as her bodyguard for$5,000 until she can find out what's on the flash drive. But Taylor is a bigoted racistex detective who takes her money but doesn't take Pepper's fears seriously ------ Until she turn s up dead in the L.A. River.Back in Washington DC treasonous Kansas Senator METHIAS CRANDAL hascalled a clandestine meeting with the thirteen white supremacist politicians to bringthem up to date on the missing flash drive and the death of the prostitute.
