| Publisher Description: Prodrome: From Greek prodromus, 'precursor.' Def. An early symptom indicating the onset of a disease or illness. World domination is a family affair. Bruce Diganey is set to inherit the family business and he must meet his new colleagues, a global network of secretive and relentlessly wealthy autocrats. Plotting for centuries, these families do more than manipulate markets and governments, having made sinister alliances with dark powers shrouded in legend, masked by obscure initiation rites, and spoken of only in whispers. There is a resistance, but it takes a most unlikely form: a paranoid conspiracy theorist and an autistic child. When the mute begins to speak and conspiracy theory becomes conspiracy fact, the prodrome is revealed. Confronted with the reality of the family business, Bruce must make a choice: Will he complete what his ancestors have started, or follow the path of the few in his family who have resisted? His choice will affect us all, and he knows it - this is his birthright. In book one of a two-part novel, Prodrome asks: If the fate of the world was in your hands, would you save it? |
