Description: The stage is set for war. Oil prices are surging to record highs. A new dictator is rising in Iraq. China is threatening Taiwan. North Korean forces appear ready to strike south. Israel is feverishly trying to complete the Third Temple. And in the midst of a world ready to explode, American president James MacPherson's second term is ending. Now as a fiercely contested presidential election campaign approaches, America faces its greatest threat ever . . . one from which it might not recover. From New York Times best-selling novelist Joel C. Rosenberg comes an explosive new political thriller addressing the question of what, if any, role the United States will play in the end times. This book is sure to provoke discussion and controversy, along with fervent hopes that this frightening vision of the future will not come true.
Details: This 5th book of the 5 book series is a compelling and plausible rational as how and why America could be in a position where it COULD NOT help Israel.
As with all of the books in this series, Joel Rosenberg has hit another "Home Run"
Review Summary: Loved it...a real "page turner"!

Details: Joel Rosenberg's writing style is unmatched! I am especially moved by his writing about current events in the middle east (and the world at large) from a Christian perspective, his "third lens of Scripture."
Review Summary: Great end to the Series
Date: 2008-12-31
Details: I enjoyed the end to this series; but as others have said you definitely need to have read other books in this series first otherwise you'll be lost.
The book is written well and its characters are well developed; and there really are no lulls like in some of his other books. I finished it in ~6 hours, its a fun read and definitely worth the buy. I took a look at the negative reviews of this book; and none of them really point out a real flaw with the content or makeup of the text, just problems individuals take with its underlying theme. As free advice; if you cannot look at a Christmas tree in a public place without being offended you probably won't like this book (but should read it anyway.)
Review Summary: Dead Heat by Joel Rosenberg
Date: 2008-12-16
Details: Excellent end to his series. Entirely too real to dismiss as possibilities in the end times. For those of us who believe his work is entirely plausible.
Review Summary: Dead Heat
Date: 2008-12-16
Details: The final episode of the five book series does not disappoint! Again, the author gives the reader plenty to ponder without fear. I only wish I had discovered the series sooner. I think about the books almost daily as the headlines fit into the story lines, I think, well, no surprises in today's paper.
