In Six Days M Quilman

IN SIX DAYS explores the rage of youth, impatient environmentalism, and open interpretation of the bible into a powerful story of conspiracy and adventure. Zoe Becker is inside federal prison prepping for a nationally-televised interview. The teenager from Manhattan is accused of masterminding the largest string of eco-terrorism in the country's history. A throng of supporters outside the prison scream for her release. Others, for her to be locked up for life. The President tweets: Un-American eco-terrorist #ZoeBecker will rot in jail until she dies. Unless she gets the death penalty, which I fully support. #DeathPenaltyforZoeOver the next 90,000 words, an unlikely collection of characters come to life: Zoe and her widowed father, a former eco-terrorist from the 80s; a homeless Marine veteran and his sidekick who see their prophecy in the bible, To Destroy those Who Destroy the Earth; a pair of misfit FBI agents who uncover a larger message in the attacks; and a corrupt gathering of powerbrokers. As the authorities close in, Zoe finds herself on the run, protecting her loved ones and the dark secret she holds. For the FBI, they must safeguard the country at all costs. The next attack is IN SIX DAYS.
