The Malthus Confederation

Autor Edward K. Jeffer, Trafford Publishing
en Limba Engleză Paperback
A physician, whose life has never restarted after the death of his wife three years before, receives a cryptic message from Africa, from a high school friend pleading for help in a life or death matter. The chief of staff of a prominent Midwestern Senator is warned by an informant inside the White Supremacist movement that ?millions may die.? Pope John Paul asks a Monsignor with highly unusual skills to look into some troubling information.
Three individuals will find themselves locked in a struggle with the wealthiest and most powerful clandestine organization which has ever tried to alter the course of world history. Spanning the globe, the story ricochets from the heavily guarded compound of a far right militia in Idaho to the jungles of Brazil, from the streets of New York to Mali and Kenya, from Beijing to the Vatican. These three individuals with their own life burdens use all their skills to just stay alive, while trying to find out who is behind the Malthus Confederation and what do they want.
Ultimately, their trails converge for an exciting and illuminating finale only to be followed by a second surprise ending. Some depiction of violence and some sexual material make this book unsuitable for readers younger than sixteen.

Notă biografică

Ed Jeffer started out to be an English teacher and writer and wound up in medical school. He started out to become a surgeon and wound up a psychiatrist. He planned on a career split between private practice and teaching medical students and instead, spent 26 years in the U. S. Army. As a military physician, Dr. Jeffer had the opportunity to do clinical work, serve on five university faculties, command hospitals and health clinics and serve on the staffs of three combat divisions. Extremely instructive tours were spent as the Chief, Office of Drug and Alcohol Abuse Control for Europe and the Middle East and the Forensic Psychiatry Consultant for Europe. Also, he was the Chief of Quality Assurance for Army Medicine World-wide, Psychiatry Consultant for Operation Desert Storm, and Chief Medical Officer for the Army National Guard with responsibility for all 54 jurisdictions. His last eight years were spent in Pentagon assignments.

Along the way, he was still able to hold on to his love of writing. He had two plays produced, sold numerous stories and published over fifty articles in medical journals. Wanting to write a novel in the genre of Frank Norris and the muckrakers, he wound up with a book very much in the spirit of Robert Ludlum with a little bit of Dr. Phil. He and his wife have visited the seven continents and over one hundred countries and reside in Falls Church, Virginia.
