It's early 2017, and the United States is suffering a thin-skinned popularity-obsessed President and a sluggish economy. (Though this is a work of fiction, it just happens to be an astonishingly prescient one.) The USA's woes are nothing, however, compared to those of the NSA, the nation's surveillance specialists. Senator Carolyn Bigsley, a one-woman force of nature, is on the cusp of shuttering the rudderless intelligence agency for good. Until General Whiteley is appointed NSA Director, just as a series of terror attacks led by bearded men suddenly rocks the nation, and that's when things start to get a little crazy. Everyone's involved: the Amish, hipsters, wild-eyed Irishmen, lizard people, something called the Mirror, and - worst of all - the CIA.This scathing satire of governance and modern media is the book you need to read if:-You found Trump vs Clinton depressing -Snowden's revelations made you hopping mad-You want to laugh instead of cry
