The Power of Fear is a chilling 'What if,' a stretch of the imagination, and a glimpse into an ultra-right-wing United States posing as a democracy and using advances in medical and ectogenesis technologies to preserve a White America.
Make America One Again was Dawson Nerium’s campaign slogan which paved the way for him to win the 2024 election and become the 47th President of the United States. Nothing more than smoke and mirrors though, the slogan had nothing to do with unity but more about preserving a White America. As part of his MAOA agenda, the then newly elected President replaced race as a category with a percentage of whiteness. Nearly a quarter of a century later, his grandson, the 49th President of the United States, might have stretched his grandfather’s agenda too far when a high-profile murder is linked to the Puritan Project, a covert government black ops program managed by someone in his inner circle. THE POWER OF FEAR is a fast-paced fiction that take place in the second half of the 21st Century, a dystopian future of an ultra-right wing United States perpetrating as a democracy using advances in medical and ectogenesis technologies to preserve a White America.
Nour, a young African American woman, but classified by the government as a 65 Percenter on Nerium’s ‘Whiteness Scale’ applies her skills and experience as former Naval Intelligence Officer to find Karen, her best friend and former Naval Academy roommate. At the same time, she embarks on a new career while working for a non-government organization spearheading several major initiatives for the United States, including space exploration and bringing an end to human trafficking. She discovers more than she should about the Puritan Project, a government underground black ops program, using ectogenesis and genetic engineering of human embryos to combat the browning of America, fuel the long running Nerium Dynasty, and ultimately, transform the application of American Democracy.
