The year is 2025. A giant oil field has been discovered off the Tanzanian coast. Tanzania is a Chinese ally, but the United States desperately needs the oil to prop up an economy crippled by the collapse of the 'fracking' bubble. A newly-elected US president orders regime change, but the Chinese have plans of their own. The explosion that follows shatters a decades-old balance of global power, brings both nations to the brink of nuclear war, and triggers a crisis back in America that the United States may not survive.Part military-political thriller, part stark warning of an uncomfortably likely future, Twilight's Last Gleaming promises to be one of the year's most controversial novels.
