In book 2 of the Tad Holder Trilogy, Tad encounters two terrorist groups, one domestic and the other foreign, who have joined forces and are backed by a powerful global financier. The "Disciples of Dawn" allow nothing to stand between them and their plans for world domination. Tad and a very special dog stumble into one of their compounds, disguised as a Hunt Club. Meanwhile, America comes under siege, cities without utilities and communications down.
