Get ready for a heart-pounding thrill ride of political upheaval!

In a nation teetering on the edge of chaos, the United States finds itself in a deadly internal conflict. Revenge, rebellion, and a simmering cauldron of injustice and hatred threaten to tear the country apart from within.

Enter a homegrown revolutionary army led by a charismatic figure, wreaking havoc in major cities and daring to challenge the very foundations of the nation. But when they invade and seize control of Texas, establishing a new government, the stakes skyrocket.

As if that wasn't enough, a military coup in Mexico adds fuel to the fire as a new dictator aligns with the rebels, pushing America to the brink of collapse. The detonation of the first of five nuclear bombs sends shockwaves of terror across the land.

Amidst this chaos, a beacon of hope emerges—a mysterious woman with crucial intelligence on the rebels' clandestine operations. But is her message a lifeline or a deadly trap?

Enter Charlene 'Charlie' Perea, a fierce resistance fighter, and Colonel David Cougar, a battle-hardened Army Ranger. United by unlikely circumstances, they must navigate treacherous waters to save their country from the brink of destruction.

With Charlie captured by the rebel leader, Colonel Cougar must race against time to rescue her, disarm the nukes, and put an end to the madness. But as peace talks falter and armies gather for a final showdown, the fate of a nation hangs in the balance.

Will freedom prevail, or will America succumb to the abyss of tyranny and despair? Dive into this pulse-pounding, suspenseful novel and discover if the land of the free can be rescued from "The Greater Danger"!

Editorial Reviews

From the Author

I found the idea for this story within the pages of my newspaper. The article talked about the hatred some Americans feel toward their corrupt government and its leaders, against the elites who looked down on them. It made me stop and think... what if those groups joined forces, united under one leader could America be in trouble? History shows us that Americans united against an outside enemy, but what if the enemy is our next-door neighbor? When the cancer of ignorance, bitterness, radicalism and injustice infects a nation, power-hungry leaders on both sides can capitalize on the growing fires of hatred to further their own ambitions. Sound like the atmosphere in today's society? Guess what. That newspaper article was written in the 1990s, not long after the Oklahoma bombing by Timothy McVeigh. This book is as relevant then as it is now. Maybe more so.

Filling a need for order, a charismatic leader could emerge at just the right time, with the right message to use his followers' blind faith and propagate his twisted ideology, satisfying his thirst for revenge and power. When we hide, ignore and keep silent, we give up our freedoms. It doesn't matter what politics you subscribe to when there is hate on both sides. That is the greater danger we must fear and fight against. This story is about civil war and rebellion, but it is also about individuals caught in the crossfire as they battle their own demons of revenge, remorse and redemption, willing to do anything to survive. To save the soul of the Union, Americans must learn a nation cannot heal itself, until its people first heal themselves. Beware the greater danger within.

About the Author

I'm a storyteller. An over abundance of imagination and curiosity created a writer. For as long as I can remember, making up stories and tall-tales has been something that came naturally. I never thought about putting them down on paper and creating novels until about twenty years ago. Before it was just for fun and to get those pesky stories out of my head, but now it is time to publish them.

As Hemmingway said, "Any man's life told truly, is a novel." So, after a life filled with varied experiences, both career and personal, my writings are often more truth than fiction. I have a degree in graphic design but after a few years being poor and overworked, I enjoyed a 25-year career in public relations, mostly for governments. Born in a small town in Colorado, my career allowed me to live in and travel to many parts of this country, meeting interesting, famous and diverse personalities. Now settled in West Texas, I enjoy painting, photography and working on my ancestral history.

Today, my desire as a fiction author is to share my stories with you, letting you too escape from reality and dare to dream. My books are about the human drama of life and death, desire and love, anger and loss. I take ordinary people and put them in extraordinary circumstances. Then I watch to see how they respond. I focus on how my characters learn to overcome the obstacles that life throws at them while going through personal changes and growth. I have learned what we expected our lives to be is not necessarily how they turn out. Life is full of more twists than a roller coaster, love is risky, death unexpected, and testing is hard, but we somehow make it through with hope, faith, love and lots of laughter to season the stew. Thank you for choosing my book to read and I will do my best to keep you entertained, hopefully on the edge of your seat.

I'm a storyteller. An overabundance of imagination and curiosity created a writer.

I have a degree in advertising design but after a few years being poor and overworked, I enjoyed a 25-year career in public relations for government and corporations. Born in Pueblo, a small town in Colorado, my ever evolving and demanding career allowed me to live in and travel to many parts of this country, working for unique employers, meeting interesting, famous and diverse personalities. Now settled in Texas, besides writing, I enjoy painting, photography and working on my ancestral history.

As Hemmingway said, ‘Any man's life told truly, is a novel.’ So, after a life filled with varied experiences, both career and personal, my writings are often more truth than fiction. Much of what is in my stories I went through and survived. Today, my desire as a fiction author is to share my stories with you, letting you too escape from reality and dare to dream.

My books are about the human drama of life and death, desire and love, anger and loss. I take ordinary people and put them in extraordinary circumstances. Then I watch to see how they respond. I focus on how my characters learn to overcome the obstacles that life throws at them while going through personal changes and growth. I have learned what we expected our lives to be is not necessarily how they turn out. That's not a bad thing.

Couldn’t put this one down

The Greater Danger grabs you from the first page. It is a riveting story that relates to today’s America. The characters are authentic and believable with many twists and turns on their journey. A great read.

Pretty good fictional yarn about the Second Civil War. The characters were well defined, and once the story of the actual Civil War was told it was very interesting although a little to heavy on the sex. That’s why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5.

A revolution in Texas

Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2018

This book tells the story of a revolution in the United States in the not too distant future. It describes how a man and a woman almost single handedly destroyed the leader.

Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2018

This is a must read. Talk about a book about what could really happen! Excellent writing and character development. Here is a story that could easily happen today. No matter what side you feel you are on, you can identify with this story. Government has given up the “servant’s heart” . Washington is there to advance themselves. They have forgotten about “We the People”.
This will happen if we don’t pay more attention

Epic alternate history tale

Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2018

Love it when a smart but courageous female character work is the center piece of a good book. This was well paced, well researched, and loads of fun.

This held my interest on vacation, It is neither Steinbeck nor bombeck but somewhere in between
