Description
Once the supermarket shelves empty, civilization is only one meal away from total anarchy....
Want to know how the government plans to cope with the massive unrest, fear, and panic of a pandemic disaster like COVID-19?
Want to know where YOU figure in it all?
COVID-19
Are you in the throes of confusion, panic, and fear? There’s likely a lot more to come. Read on....
RESURRECTION DAY.
Want to know how America and the world will do battle against a looming international disaster like the COVID-19 pandemic?
RESURRECTION DAY
In seven days Islamic terrorists will unleash an appalling new weapon on the Western World unless their demands are met. With millions of lives at stake, Washington and Moscow realise they have no choice but to join forces and put their two top investigators in charge of the manhunt.
As the President of the United States contemplates choosing between humiliating defeat and mass destruction, Jack Collins and Alexei Kursk find themselves pitted not only against a ruthless enemy, but also against each other.
And time is running out…
RESURRECTION DAY
The novel that America refused to publish because it was too controversial.
At its heart is a story about a city, a country and a president trying to do battle with the mayhem of a major national disaster. And how FEMA—whose mission it is to oversee the federal response to all natural disasters, hazards, and pandemics—will attempt to cope.
Learn about:
•The reality of ‘ghost’ ships anchored off the US coast, ready and waiting in case a deadly disaster or pandemic strikes—vessels ready to dispose of a rising numbers of bodies that may pose a public health risk. Stocked with cement-making equipment, the ships are ready to dispose of huge numbers of corpses, encasing them in cement laden dumpsters and ferrying out to the ocean to be disposed of, to avoid disease and contamination.
•How authorities will attempt to cope with food shortages, riots, fear, panic and massive civil unrest.
•What tricks would disaster agency FEMA use to quickly evacuate a doomed city, and prevent panic taking over? Hint: your nearest ATM cash machine will play a vital role.
•How will cities and towns deal with the breakdown of law and order, especially in densely populated areas and in ghettoes?
•Overloaded hospitals and ERs—what is the best hope for you and your family in a pandemic or natural disaster? To flee the city to the safety of rural areas or to stay put?
•How the government will take care of their own in secret, safe locations, and to hell with you.
RESURRECTION DAY is a novel, a fiction, a story that was in many ways prophetic about 9/11, but the background research is NOT fiction—it is reality.
The circumstances may be different—COVID-19, and not a deadly nerve gas attack facing America and the Western world, as in the book—but at heart many of the circumstances and the methods of dealing with this massive looming pandemic we face are the same.

What a gripping read. I was hooked from the start.
The storyline was well thought out and written. The characters are well defined and the scenery, highly descriptive. The narrative keeps you on the edge of your seat until the stunning conclusion.
Glenn Meade has certainly delivered another great thriller. I can't wait for more from this author.
Well worth a read.

Thanks to BooksGo Social and NetGalley for letting me read this book in exchange for an honest feedback.
Kudos to Glenn Meade for this riveting, suspenseful and action-packed thriller. There are many parts that had me on the edge of my seat, as the plot unfolded. A good job too on the characters, especially the main protagonists and the President. They were people driven by different desires: to exact revenge for loss, to save a soul gone rogue, to save a big city and its inhabitants from annihilation. The finale is gripping enough. There is so much tension in the air, as the FBI had the terrorists in their sight.
Like 9/11, Resurrection Day is a story that cannot be far from reality. Much as I hate to think about it, I just pray that it will not be a real story played out on the daily news.
A compelling read!!
