While the Nation Sleeps

The nation trusts President Jonathan Reed Calder. It has no idea what he does behind closed doors.
Admired for his calm leadership, Calder has secretly appointed himself judge of men the law has failed to stop. He believes his actions serve the country—until protecting his reputation becomes more important than protecting anyone else.
When evidence begins pointing toward Daniel Keir, an ordinary engineer, the machinery of justice gathers around the wrong man. An investigator follows a persuasive trail. Daniel's sister fights to make herself heard. Inside the White House, those closest to Calder must decide how much their loyalty will cost.
As private choices harden into an official account, the truth faces an opponent far stronger than any single lie: a story the country already wants to believe.
While the Nation Sleeps is a gripping literary political thriller about concealed violence, wrongful accusation, and the devastating distance between public trust and private power.
