Can terrorists really bring the United States to its knees? According to Brad 
groups throughout cities around the world would be ready to act according to a fanatical plan once given the go-ahead. These factions would stand ready with their knockout blows in much the same way that millions of troops in England were ready to launch operation Overlord against the Germans in the Second World War, just waiting the command to start.
In this country, so many of these groups would launch their havoc that authorities everywhere would be overwhelmed. Propaganda would convince citizenry that the old order must disappear so that a collective one-world command center could be recognized. It would end capitalism where the rich get richer and the poor get poorer and install in its place equalizing communism.
As this plot slowly uncovers, tough man Harvath has been given the supreme command to launch any and all measures he sees fit to thwart this entire operation. This means he must put in place people who can infiltrate the terrorists and their secret cells. Harvath uncovers that one of the first essential attacks will be against America’s electrical power grid. The destruction will occur via interconnected computers that control the national grid, not necessarily by detonating bombs in power stations.
In fact, Full Black claims that the brown-out that occurred along the eastern seaboard of this country several years ago might have been a terrorist practice run to see how much damage could be done, and how quickly the grid could be restored. If power was interrupted long enough, water shortages would occur due to lack of pumping stations. Transportation would come to a standstill. Internet connections would virtually disappear, particularly when laptop batteries eventually died and could not be recharged. In the end, the government would fail and people would clamor for a new savior to save the nation.

Very disappointing, disjointed and hard-to-read book. Author and his main character get off on too many hateful, one-sided political rants. Not a book for everyone. Sad.

Regis Schilken has a grammatical error in his review of FULL BLACK. It should be "average Joe like you and me."
