What's even more unsettling to a nervous nation: The arch was damaged and turned black overnight but without apparent cause—no bombs, no guns, no chemicals. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThere are suspects, however. And Charlie Hart, a clean-cut FBI agent in the all-American mode, is on the trail of three: Lakota John Brown Dog, an otherworldly whore, and \"the grandfather,\" who's in contact with a shadowy but powerful group known as the allies. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eAnd matters only get scarier for America after the arch is damaged...the four stone presidents on Mount Rushmore come under an attack that a hundred armed agents and a dozen assault helicopters are powerless to stop...then it's on to a second battle of the Little Bighorn. The white man's civilization ends with a lone wolf howling in the desolate forests of Manhattan. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe \u003ci\u003eforce majeure\u003c\/i\u003e behind these events is ghost dancing, which began in 1890 as a promise to Indians that America's original illegal aliens—the Europeans and their descendants—could be eradicated without war, without killing. How this promise can be fulfilled more than a hundred years later, in present-day America, is one of the compelling mysteries at the heart of \u003ci\u003eFacing Rushmore.\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eMartin's ten novels have given him a cult following.

But \u003ci\u003eFacing Rushmore\u003c\/i\u003e is in a class by itself. The novel's unforgettable characters dare to consider a provocative question in the post-9\/11 world: Can the technological power of the United States, a power that has dominated the world, be overwhelmed by a superior \u003ci\u003espiritual\u003c\/i\u003e force? \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eFacing Rushmore\u003c\/i\u003e will thrill and provoke readers. It's a history lesson, a page-turner, and one hell of a journey. If you're a Martin fan, the good news is: He's back. If this is your first trip with him, get ready for the ride of your life.","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43405242073343,"sku":"9781451656480","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781451656480_s600x595.jpg?v=1776957770","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9781451656480","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
