In 'Capitol Punishment', Special Agents Art Jefferson and 'Frankie' Aguirre, who thrilled readers in Pearson's previous novel, 'October's Ghost', are back again. This time they are in pursuit of a white supremacist--John Barrish--who has in his arsenal a chemical weapon so lethal that the smallest amounts can cause mass death. Barrish has struck before, when four black children were killed in cold blood on their way to church. Now he is bolder, and his plan for destruction goes far beyond simple homicide, with plans to strike a blow at the heart of the American government in Washington, D.C.

Bone-chilling in its detailed accuracy, Pearson's novel of homegrown terrorism is a fast-paced, provocative thriller that shows just how deadly the mix of politics and high-tech sabotage can be. From the opening page to the culmination of events on the day of the president's State of the Union address, the action and intrigue in 'Capitol Punishment' never lets up.
