Book Description

January 19, 2009
This is the story of the story of the century.  Saroyan Pashogi has it all, riches, fame, and a handsome international league soccer playing boy friend, but she wants a different kind of man.  She finds him as an New LA celebrity reporter, Clem Reader.  Little does she know that Clem has just stumbled upon the government's darkest, most closely held secret, and that it's ordered jobs on both Saroyan and Clem to silence them.

Set 300 years after a nuclear war, the place they live in has an amazing resemblance to the United States today. Along the way, The Story of the Century provides glimpses of the way things are today in international drug smuggling, the military industrial complex, the world intelligence community, and political corruption. And just as much as The Story of the Century is about a reporter's discovery of what the government really knows about flying saucers (and his fabulous romance with a Hollywood leading lady),  the book is also a dyspeptic portrait of America today.

Editorial Reviews

From the Author

Little did I know that when I started out to write a thriller, I found that I had written a romance instead! I should have known.  I'm a girlyman. All of my female characters are strong and competent.  All of my male characters are bozos.

From the Inside Flap

Clem Reader is a reporter on the celebrity beat who accidentally  stumbles on the story of the century. At the same time, he loses himself in a passionate affair with Saroyan Pashogi, one of the world's most famous and beautiful  movie stars.  As the lovers fall under government surveillance Saroyan finds additional evidence, and the government begins action  to permanently silence them along with anyone else who knows the secret.  Will the lovers survive? Will the world survive? It's a tale of extraterrestials, drug running, and political intrigue and corruption that will keep you going until the final chapters.
