The Maricopa County Attorney and Sheriff mysteriously close a case of officer-involved homicide less than 48 hours after the shooting. Newspaper reporter Dianna Holmes becomes suspicious of a cover up, and enlists her former college professor, Jack McGlamary, to help her solve the riddle. Dianna doesn't know that Professor McGlamary has a secret. He saw the shooting and the officer involved--the sheriff's nephew--planted a gun on one of the victims to make it look like a case of self-defense.When 3 envelopes appear in Dianna Holmes' possession containing evidence of corruption deep within state and county government, Dianna and the Professor are sent headlong into a new path of investigation. A for-profit prison company has convinced the state legislature that they can save Arizona's struggling economy with a plan to house America's Baby Boomer retirees in prison-retirement camps. However, Billionaire Sang Wu, who owns the Chinese company, has a secret agenda--euthanize an entire generation of people to feed the world and avoid global economic collapse. The coming election will provide the means for him to build the camps and begin the extermination.A deadly game of cat and mouse unfolds in the final weeks leading up to the critical election. With their careers at stake, and possibly facing indictment if the truth is revealed, local officials want Dianna and Jack dead. Seeing a world filled with millions of starving youth working to feed a glutinous generation of Boomers in retirement, Sang Wu is willing to go to any extreme to ensure that happens.
