Redemption: Aftermath of The Simon Trilogy

It was April 2017. The nation was gripped by the shocking news that Simon Hall, the notorious terrorist, had leaped to his death off the Peace Bridge in Buffalo, New York. Moreover, the fact that the body had yet to be recovered raised doubts among many. Had Simon cleverly eluded his captors once again? But for the newly-elected president, there were greater threats looming. President Randall Post had inherited a rapidly sinking economy that brought chaos of gargantuan proportions. And with the push for global governance threatening Americas sovereignty, the country was in dire need of solutions. Meanwhile, the American populace was clamoring for a full governmental offensive on the clear need to create more jobs. The economic sinkhole had been accelerated by the paucity of employment throughout the country, which was largely ignored by the former administration in favor of their agenda. Internationally, a loss of esteem, coupled with a rising support of global governance among powerful forces, gave birth to a prediction of a permanent decline in Americas stature. Unrest among the masses had surfaced in frequent demonstrations against the government, many of which included violence. There was a blatant crisis of confidence facing the nation. The increasing turmoil threatening the future of the U.S. was addressed head-on by the newly-elected president. He filled the leadership void boldly and without hesitationbut he needed the support of the American people. The downtrodden mood that permeated the society forced his primary objective to design a strategy to address the crucial need for more jobs. Borrowing a page from the Manhattan Project, the presidents chosen course was to assemble some of the countrys best minds to offer solutions. The clandestine group known as La Fratellanza was enlisted to fulfill the role. Their superior intellectual skills and experience as Washington insiders, made them eminently qualified to meet the Presidents needs. Noble Bishop, director of the States Intelligence Agency was tasked to bring them together and to provide the leadership and guidance. The timetable had been set. To deliver on the immediacy of his stated goals, the President expected an overall strategy in only sixty-five daysa challenge of overwhelming dimensions.

Review :
ALFREDO VEDRO Media Production Consultant, Florida "It would be fair to assume that most literature has its genesis in verisimilitude -- after all, don't creative writing teachers always say, "Write about what you know," and Sally Fernandez knows a lot about what's happening today. REDEMPTION, with its excellent analysis of our current economic situation and disastrous government policies, has all the qualities and experiences to merit the term. It "fits the bill" as the saying goes. Lively economics/political discussions among the characters are fascinating to follow and the setting is most intriguing. Once again, a work that merits the accolade, 'A good read!'" JIM "TURTLE" HARMON Poet and Lyrist "As a new fan of Sally Fernandez, I have just finished her latest novel, Redemption. I started in mid stream with The Ultimate Revenge and was immediately captivated by her grasp of reality, her depth of extensive research, and ability to blend reality and fiction into a very believable novel. I personally researched most of her "real" characters, quotes, placement in time and place and found them to be real, accurate and well placed in the content.. I was amazed! While I am not a big reader of novels, The Ultimate Revenge was a page turner for me. Redemption, on the other hand, was more analytical, contained a lot of dialog between characters and was less exciting a read. However, in its defense (none really needed) it spoke directly to our nations woes, social, political, and economic and was very educational while weaving her plot. Sally sets forth ideas that our congress and political leaders would be well advised to considers we approach 2016 elections. The public would be well advised to carefully read this book and understand the challenges ahead. Drastic and imperative changes must be adopted if America is to regain the greatness and respect we once enjoyed . Well written, Sally. I look forward to your possible TV and movie of these series and new books in the works."
