Book excerpt: " Prior Restraint"--America's most famous news anchor is brutally murdered by terrorists, and the entire media establishment is paralyzed by the fear of who may be next. Seemingly overnight, a pernicious wave of self-censorship grips the airwaves, and no one dares to further criticize religious fanaticism. A corrupt Senator, intoxicated by ambition and greed, exploits the ensuing chaos, while a tenacious, young reporter risks her career and her life to uncover the truth. "Prior Restraint" is a chilling story about fear, greed and power that actually blurs the borders between reality and illusion, with a plot line all the more terrifying in its disturbing proximity to our everyday reality.
