Energy Dependence Day
by Christian BurtonPublish: Jan 21, 2014Thriller Suspense Action & Adventure Historical Fiction Book Overview
Two countries, different in almost every way, yet bound by the common thread of oil. What would happen if that thread broke? When the turbulent waters of the Arab Spring reach Saudi Arabia—the birthplace of Islam and home to fifteen of the 9/11 terrorists—the United States will need to balance conflicting ideological goals, and learn how to determine when old friends turn into new enemies.
Energy Dependence Day weaves a tale through the political, social, and religious differences of the United States and Saudi Arabia, experienced through the lives of two men, both orphaned as children. One has lived his life in terrorist training camps while the other entered the military and then law enforcement. Each is loyal to the world in which he was saved, moving them on a collision course that will affect the future of the world.
