He enjoys his life, with no big worries and certainly no dark forebodings of the kind that torment tinfoil-hatted survivalists. Then comes the shocker, the election of a dangerous buffoon as US president, a grotesque incompetent who's manifestly unfit for office. Foreseeing wide scale disaster, Jacob stores emergency supplies in his basement and buys a gun. Meanwhile back in his day-to-day world he is recruited by an old friend to join her hot e-commerce start-up. When evidence surfaces that sketchy Russian investors are using the start-up as a front, Jacob agrees to help his friend expose the investors' criminal scheme. The investors are suspicious and homicidal and Jacob's life is on the line. It's not the collapse of public order for which he prepared but it has the same imperative: Do what you must to survive.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67841341194463,"sku":"9780983924463","price":20.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/UtKvEbxO1i9780983924463.webp?v=1790819569"},{"product_id":"portrait-of-ignatius-jones-paperback","title":"Portrait of Ignatius Jones - Paperback","description":"\u003cp\u003eBOSTON 1896.
