Night of Screams: the First Book of the Mabus Chronicles Mr Ronald N Goulden

Publisher Marketing: In the early years of the twenty-first century, a vile evil ascended the throne of the American Republic. He came from obscurity, shrouded in mystery and misdirection. Like the serpent, he promised all things to all people. He always said what people wanted to hear. His open disdain for America, the Constitution, and its governing principles went unnoticed by the mainstream media, which quickly became his Ministry of Propaganda. This man, Mabus, ascended the American throne, not by rightful election of the populace, but by enormous propaganda efforts and fraudulent voting practices, funded by his foreign masters who counted among their numbers dictators, terrorists, and rabid socialists bent upon the destruction of America. After his rise to power, he fired the military and law enforcement officials, replacing them with his own Civilian Defense Corps, filling its ranks from the slums, ghettos, and barrios; finding angry young men and women and giving them a purpose, authority, and a weapon. Mabus also pulled heavily from the ranks of unscrupulous union thugs and questionable community organizing groups. Backed by his Corps of 'Purple Berets' and willing United Nations invaders, Mabus began tightening his iron grip on the American people. Mike Robinson, an Army veteran, tried to remain neutral; hoping that the legitimate political processes would solve the Mabus problem and restore sanity to America. However, when Mabus ordered the wholesale incarceration of loyal Americans by purple berets and UN soldiers, hopes for neutrality vanished. Escaping from a brutal concentration camp, Mike joins forces with other Americans trying to restore their country to its erstwhile greatness. With the military in exile, the small band of loyalists wage a relentless war against the domestic enemies of America and its Constitution.
