Embracing the Mysterious God by James Emery White

Embracing the Mysterious God by James Emery White

An untested FBI agent.

Living and working in Chicago, young and inexperienced FBI agent Laura Monroe grapples with her marginal role in the battle against terror. When the most devastating terrorist attack since September 11 occurs practically on her doorstep, Laura finds herself thrust into the lead role of an international manhunt to track down and apprehend the perpetrators before they unleash their next strike.

A gambling President.

Back in Washington, D.C., progressive U.S. President Jack Matheson bears a heavy burden as he finds his country in turmoil. As the nation braces for more attacks, he gambles on a radical new energy policy which, if passed, could incense the terrorists and politically backfire. While he rallies his allies to support his ambitious agenda, the forces of evil mount an attempt on the President's life.

A battle to save the country.

Laura's grueling pursuit of the terrorists uncovers a tangled web of perpetrators and motives-challenging the notions of good and evil, and of friend and foe. In a last ditch effort Laura races against all odds to outwit the terrorists in a final showdown. But who will come out on top at The Brink of Destruction?
