Dawn of Doomsday

“How did this happen? What about the detail assigned to watch Elaine and the girls?” These thoughts raced through the President of the United States, Jerald Mortensen’s mind as he anguished over the tape he had just recently received. This tape turns out to be the impetus that brings Reggie Nutsbagh and Toby, Preston, Private Detectives, into this complex problem. They had come to the attention of the President and his Chief of Staff, Garrett Farmer, when their courageous exploits across the European Continent were revealed to them by the German and French governments. These two detectives, one from Las Vegas, Nevada, and the other from Bremerton, Washington became involved in a desperate dash across Europe (Book #3, The Dawn over Europe) to deny a terrorists group access to the dreaded anthrax virus and an antidote to the virus developed by three sons of very rich parents. Although from foreign countries they were attending a prestigious university in the United States and during their studies had developed both the virus and an antidote. They work was discovered by a group of men wanting to use the virus to cripple the United States and its allies. Nothing about this mission or the persons responsible for the favorable results in denying terrorist this deadly virus could be announced or disclosed the public so they were honored in private, with a few of our nation’s high ranking government officials present, including the President and his Chief of Staff. Now the Chief of Staff, Garrett Farmer, without getting a blessing from his boss, the President, called for the two detectives to return to the Washington DC to assist the President this serious matter. When told what Garrett has done the President responds, “How can they do anything when even the Secret Service can’t find a clue? We have less than forty hours before the kidnappers make their demands. It would take hours just to get them here.” “Actually, my old friend, they are on their way here now. They should be landing at Andrews very shortly. I told them only that the President had need of their services.” The two detectives, had not too long ago, returned from a long and dangerous mission in Europe involving the anthrax virus now and were just settling in with their families now they were called back to our nation’s capital and would find themselves embroiled in another mystery involving the kidnapping of the President’s family. This kidnapping would turn into something more serious and along the way personal problems surface when Reggie’s wife, Brandy dies in child birth leaving him with a new born daughter. His partner, Toby Preston, thinking about a single father trying to raise a daughter, invites a young lady, Monika, who became enamored with Reggie during their escapades in Europe, to come to the United States and help Reggie with his new born daughter. But there is a catch to this invitation which will further complicate an already complex situation. These personal problems boil over in both households and could sideline this investigation before it gets started. But duty to country comes first so pushing these personal problems aside the two detectives dive into the Presidents dilemma and using the skills they have developed over the years of operating together in an attempt to solve the kidnapping of his family. This kidnapping becomes even more and our two detectives receive another invitation to talk to the President on a more serious matter, the theft of Nuclear Devises from a Submarine Base in the State of Washington. This situation becomes a race against time as our two detectives are taxed to the maximum, as time and the threat of a Nuclear detonation in a large populated area creates an added dimension of fear. Using the full complement of personnel from their Broken Dreams Detective Agency they dive into the dangerous situation, one that takes the
