Synopsis

When the first page of a shocking Civil War - era document is unearthed in Oklahoma, history professor Nick Journey is called in to evaluate the find - and is promptly attacked by two men armed with Special Forces weapons. Federal agent Meg Tolman's investigation into Journey's attack uncovers more troubling questions than answers. She soon finds herself joining Journey's cross-country quest to recover and protect the missing pages. A shadowy group, the Glory Warriors, have been desperately searching for this explosive document to legitimize what is nothing less than a military coup. After their first attempt to steal it from Journey fails, they follow him, knowing that he holds the key to uncovering the long-lost papers. They also set their treasonous plan into motion and begin assassinating key political figures. As the country plunges into chaos, Journey and Tolman search frantically for the remaining pages. And the Glory Warrior operatives are hot on their trail...

About this title

Review:

"The past comes excitingly to life in this very modern, very white-knuckle thriller. From the Civil War to today's national politics, "Cold Glory" bristles with great characters, fascinating research, and a story that will propel you to the last page with the velocity of a hollow-point bullet." -- Gayle Lynds, "New York Times "bestselling author of "The Book of Spies" ""Cold Glory" kept me engaged, actually totally absorbed, from page one. Nicely drawn characters with real personal issues, a truckload of action, a goodly number of surprises and a satisfying ending that made you hope that all things in real life could work out this well." --David Hagberg, "New York Times" bestselling author of "Cabal" "A genuinely unique take on the tectonic and dangerous forces that lie beneath the American landscape, written by a man in full command of the page. Never vulgar, always poised, often intellectually and historically surprising, "Cold Glory" is a deeply satisfying read." --David Stone, "New York Times" bestselling author of "The Echelon Vendetta" ""Cold Glory" grabs the reader from the first chapter and doesn't let go. With inspired characters, a mystery dating back to the civil war, and an insidious plot against America, Anderson has crafted a thriller that will keep you turning the pages late into the night." --Boyd Morrison, bestselling author of "The Ark"
