NO MORE CHANCES, Book One of THE MADNESS OF POWER series, reflects the current state of the world, in all its violence, greed, and ignorance. Eric Atkins is a Vietnam vet, a college professor and a disillusioned activist trying desperately to inspire action and educate his students and anyone who'll listen about the dangerous environmental damage perpetrated by corporate greed. When he loses his job, he connects with ex-Marine buddies--CIA agent Clay Perkins, billionaire Billy F. Johnstone and Billy's head of security, Rob Collings. Together they have the resources to directly target and shut down the top serial polluters. Will their plan work? As Eric's old pal Billy Johnstone always says, "Everything's gonna be all right!" Or is it?"

A-B-C, is a fast-paced political thriller that chronicles the story of Billy Johnstone, an independently wealthy third-party presidential candidate. He longs to correct mankind's problems and break the curse of social ills, poverty, religion, and politics that divides our world into the "haves" and "have-nots." A self-made multi-billionaire, Billy reasons that if he becomes President of the United States, with the great power of that office, his dream will become a reality. Realizing the enormity of the task, he acquires an inner circle of loyal men; a brain trust. Billy convinces them that accomplishing his ambitious plan will be as easy as A-B-C. Plan A: Get Elected. Plan B: Eliminate Non-productive Elements. Plan C: Ensure Control. At break-neck speed, Billy Johnstone not only becomes President, he manages to influence the political, economic and social balance of the world. Billy's tactics, though not pleasant, are well-researched and historically proved effective. He succeeds in transforming a world once confounded by poverty, hunger, diminishing natural resources, political strife, religious wars and indiscriminate terrorism into a seemingly productive, peaceful global society working together without conflict. Billy's mantra to the world: "Everything's gonna be all right!" Or is it?
