BOOK ONE in the NEW AMERICA series.
What
would it take for the United States to fall from within? In a not too
distant future, America is put to the test. With the American people
deep in The Second Great Depression and two of the most powerful
hurricanes on record to contend with, the United States is in no
condition to deal with hidden terrorists on its soil, maniacal
politicians, and the most formidable military threat the world has seen
since the Third Reich.
This is the story of
three men from three very different walks of life: Howard Beck, the
world's richest man, also diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome; Richard
Dupree, ex-Navy SEAL turned escaped convict; and Maxwell Harris, a
crippled, burned-out chief of police of a small Texas town. At first,
they must overcome their own struggles and fight for their survival
against impossible odds. In the end, the unlikely trio must band
together to save their beloved country from COLLAPSE.
Empires topple. Nations crumble. Civilization is fragile. In 2027, America will fall.
One Reviewer Notes:
Collapse is a real page-turner. Stephenson does a masterful job of building a suspenseful ending to each chapter and then shifting to another character's story; this makes it difficult to put down this book.

About the Author
Richard Stephenson was born in 1975 in Denison, TX and spent his childhood in North Texas. In 1992, he graduated high school after only three years. He then pursued his degree at Oklahoma Christian University, once again accomplishing the task in three years. Richard then married his best friend before going off to basic training to be a military policeman with the US Army. With his new wife joining the adventure, they spent the next four years at Fort Polk, LA and had two children.
Just before his son turned five, Richard and his wife were told that their oldest child had Asperger's Syndrome. Nine years later, Richard's son would become the inspiration for the character of Howard Beck.
After leaving the armed forces, Richard continued his law enforcement career in the federal sector and has been with the Department of Justice for twelve years.
