Reparations Core

by Philip Wyeth

Overview

Late Autumn, 2028. The War for Identity has begun! Philosophy and psychology converge in this taut political thriller from author Philip Wyeth.

Re-elected President Eileen Jeffries-Lao intends to expand the Reparations program worldwide, but now meets resistance from unexpected sources. An aging man of great wealth seeks to tempt defeated presidential challenger Victor Dominguez into a shocking conspiracy. Disgraced FBI agent Marcus Young is given a second chance to prove himself--but only if he can catch a dangerous saboteur in the act!

"Reparations Core" is an ambitious satire full of richly drawn characters, keen insights, and clever science fiction flavors. Hands will be revealed... pressure applied... and loyalties tested!

Under the shadow of powerful macro forces, the diverse cast of "Reparations USA" and "Reparations Mind" must act decisively as events race forward at a breathless pace.

This is Book Three of the "Reparations" series. 47,500 words.

Editorial Reviews

“This book exceeded my expectations beyond any words… I loved it!!! When an author is able to create an exciting and compelling storyline with a monumentally important and timely plot that so personally and permanently engages the individual reader, it truly is an incredibly special literary event. Highly recommend this book!!!”

“The author continues to provide a character driven world, giving us glimpses into a dystopian society emerging from its infancy, and the people living in, and running it. From politics, to media, to family, and into your very mind you can be controlled. So who can you really trust? Or more importantly, what can you trust them to do?”

“A riveting, cautionary tale. The future is in our hands, but should it be?! Per his patented writing style, Wyeth takes a look at our modern society but does it under the guise of an uncertain, somewhat dystopian future. This allows him the opportunity to present current ideas, skewer them when needed, and show the reader how they have the potential to play out over multiple decades, generations, etc. In a society where digital interaction is seemingly favored over interpersonal relationships… it will take that long sought after human touch to cut to the heart of the matter.”
