Synopsis:

In the nineteen-sixties, a group of wealthy men concludes that it's already too late to stop global warming from destroying the planet. But they have a plan to save themselves. Twenty years later, Jack Crowley and Jim Patterson stumble onto the conspiracy, and every answer they find is accompanied by more questions - and more deaths. Jack is a former idealist, turned cynical by his years working as a New York tabloid editor. But his enthusiasm returns as he looks into the work of a NASA scientist who tells Jack about cover-ups at the space agency. Jim is a detective with little patience for conspiracy nuts. But he hates loose ends, and is unable to let go of the inconsistencies in another suspicious NASA death. Soon, his investigation leads him to Jack, and they join forces. As Jack and Jim dig deeper, they are targeted by the type of killers that don't usually miss. From Washington to Las Vegas to the Middle East, they manage to stay one step ahead of their pursuers in a race to expose the truth, and maybe, just maybe, save the world.

New World Orders Bonus Episode: Tony Makes An Offer

Bonus Episode: Tony Makes An Offer:

Hey, this is Uncle Tony, your favorite character from New World Orders. I got something to say, so listen up. It's actually a strong suggestion. You know, the kind you should really do, or else I might get perturbed and send some guys over to straighten you out. Here's the deal

If you're enjoying the podcast, we need your help. We need you to tell people about New World Orders. We want you to send at least FIVE emails to people you haven't yet told about New World Orders. Tell 'em about the book, and give 'em a link to the site at http://www.edwardgtalbot.com.

After you do this, send an email to ed@edwardgtalbot.com, telling us that you've done what Uncle Tony said. Now, you may be asking yourself, what's in it for me? Everyone who responds will get listed on the web site with your name and web site/blog if you have one. You'll become an honorary member of my "family", if you know what I mean. Also, if you email us before the end of September 2008, you'll be entered in a drawing for a giveway of some sort of New World Orders goodie. Probably a t-shirt, although my connection is still doing 10-20 upstate, so I haven't heard back from him yet.

Pretty simple. If you have any questions, just email us or leave a comment on this page. Make your Uncle Tony proud
