The Humanist — David C. Edney

An ill-timed trip to France in the wake of Nine-Eleven puts young archaeologist Sam McGowan on collision course with a government bent on introducing us to a New American Century. Illegal war? Sanctioned torture? Concentration camps on American soil? Massive wealth transfer? That's only the beginning. McGowan goes in search of a paper trail which will blow the cover off the greatest American scandal since slavery, and expose the Ultra-Conservative philosophy behind it.
