THE KING MAKER TRILOGY

 Overview 

Trilogy Book 1

THE KING MAKER

 

Fast forwarding twenty-one years from the last major foreign attack on American soil, the world is again horrified as another major terrorist attack on this country results in thousands of deaths. 

 

Not feeling comfortable with his intelligence agencies, President Bill McPherson calls upon his longtime friend, Secret Service agent Jason Williams, to help identify who is behind this horrible event. 

 

What Jason uncovers is a subversive group known as The Knights of Freedom within our nation’s capital with plans to split the nation and create a second country within the physical boundaries of the United States.  It would be known as the United Southern States of America.

 

Can Jason identify who is responsible for this terrorist attack?  Can he balance his loyalty to the President, bring an end to The Knights of Freedom, and most importantly, protect his family?

Trilogy Book 2

THE KNIGHTS OF FREEDOM

 

Three years ago, Jason Williams exposed The Knights of Freedom to the world.  Fearing for his life and the lives of his family, he and his ex-wife, Christine, faked their deaths and went into exile inside Cuba. 

 

After being betrayed by someone close to him, The Knights of Freedom retaliated against them in an act of ungodly vengeance.  With Jason out of the way, The Knights of Freedom took the final steps to implement their plan of creating a new nation WITHIN the borders of the United States of America. 

 

Can America be saved from The Knights of Freedom?  Could Jason recover from the depths of hell, and put an end to this subversive group bent on destroying our nation as we know it?  

 

Will his loyalty and friendships cloud his judgment as he decides who will live and who will die?  Is he willing to trade his life to save someone close to him? 

Trilogy Book 3

THE WINDS OF CHANGE

 

The subversive political group known as The Knights of Freedom were able to modify the U.S. Constitution and physically complete their split of America into two countries. 

 

Civil war took over the streets of both countries.  Large cities became war zones.  Hatred prevailed everywhere.  Both countries were losing control as basic services became non-existent. 

 

With the White House destroyed, one government set up operations from Camp David while the new nation established its capital in Nashville, Tennessee.  To make matters worse, Islamic terrorism added to the mayhem. 

 

Would this be the final nail in America’s coffin?  Could the country recover from the disaster it brought upon itself?  Could it rebuild into a nation that was truly for the people, by the people?   

 

With our hero’s hopes and dreams destroyed, could THE KING MAKER fight through his despair and find true love and happiness again?

THE DRAGON BOAT CONSPIRACY

Book 2 in the Ryan Stone series is about the FBI's search for a 9 year old kidnapped girl hidden inside a child sex trafficking ring.  Hannah Horowitz, head of the FBI’s Terrorist Response Unit, was being honored at a ceremony for her teams’ capture of America’s most wanted terrorist, Josef Al-Hakim. During the ceremony, she received a text from Josef’s mentor, the Imam Khalid.  The text read:

“You reneged on our agreement to not capture our brethren, so we had to do what we told you we would do. 

We have kidnapped your granddaughter, Rachel, and she is now our cherished collateral.” 

 

When the Imam turned Hannah's granddaughter Rachel over to SA-13, a group known for its human-trafficking of young children, FBI Agent Ryan Stone was ordered to go undercover into their world and recover her.  He soon became part of the seedy motel scene, full of politics, drugs, and prostitutes.   

 

After two months undercover, Ryan was able to track Rachel to Washington D.C. where he discovered the secret motives behind the kidnapping.

Bio

AUTHOR BIO

Bens Picture.jpg

Ben Reinhart was born in 1943 in Brooklyn New York where he lived for the first half-a-dozen years of his life.  At seven, he moved with his parents to Southern California, living there until he was almost sixteen.  He returned to New York and graduated high school at seventeen at which time he immediately joined the Navy to see the world.  As part of his enlistment agreement, he was sent to meteorological training in Lakehurst, NJ. 

While in the Navy, he spent two years in Iceland as an upper-air analyst plotting and tracking upper winds, temperatures and the northern lights.  His reward for being in a land with six months day and six months night was to serve his final year in the Navy on board America's "Presidential Command ship", whose only purpose was to escort the POTUS out of the country in case of nuclear attack.  This was his first exposure to a high level government command center.

 

At the end of his four years in the Navy, he returned to New York and attended college at the Pace School of Business, under the G/I Bill, where he studied Computer Science and Business Accounting.  His technical and financial background landed him in Washington D.C. where he worked on the development of America's most ambitious online stock trading system, the NASDAQ. 

 

It was the early seventies and during that time, he also worked with a government team to automate a campaign contribution system for an up-and-coming presidential candidate who will not be named.  Ben eventually left this highly political, fast paced and demanding environment and moved his family to South Florida where he continued his information technology and accounting career.  Ben retired in 2016.  

 

That's  when he finally had the time to work on his second love, writing.  With the help of his writing team, he produced his first book, "The King Maker".  The reviews from this effort were extremely positive.  After only a month in the hands of the general public, he was hearing comments like "great read, relevant to today's world, this could happen here, a protagonist we can believe in, etc.".

 

The King Maker is the first book of a trilogy, created to examine the emotions of love, loyalty and trust.  The three-book story takes place over a six year period, and encompasses the good, bad and ugly of american politics.  His trilogy tells the story of politicians putting personal greed over the best interests of the american people.  It also explores how love between two people is the reason for living, and that it's worth dying for.
