What did the president know? And when did she know it?
For the members of SEAL Team Six, it was a rare mission ordered by the president, monitored in real time from the Situation Room. The Houthi rebels in Yemen had captured an American journalist and a member of the Saudi royal family. Their executions were scheduled for Easter Sunday. The SEAL team would break them out.
But when the mission results in spectacular failure, the finger-pointing goes all the way to the top.
Did the president play political games with the lives of U.S. service members?
Paige Chambers, a determined young lawyer, has a very personal reason for wanting to know the answer. The case she files will polarize the nation and test the resiliency of the Constitution. The stakes are huge, the alliances shaky, and she will be left to wonder if the saying on the Supreme Court building still holds true.
Equal justice under law.
It makes a nice motto. But will it work when one of the most powerful people on the planet is also a defendant?

Book Title: RULE OF LAW
Book Author: Randy Singer
What do you like about this book:
This book contains it all: military action, love relationships, government overreach, seditious plotting, lawyer action and contention, government leaks, subversion of the government, and spiritual sincerity. From the perspective of none other than the first female president of the U.S., involvement of her CIA director and the President's chief of staff, a formidable plot is woven. Brought into the chaos of a SEAL TEAM disaster, both personally and professionally, a not so experienced lawyer is thrown into the fray with the veteran lawyer that she has the least love and respect for becoming her partner to the challenges that seem unimaginable. Those challenges are dramatic both in the direction of events, the drama of military action, and the verbal combat that ensues as a result. The primary issue of what position the United States should have or dos have regarding missile killings takes the protagonist to the ultimate tribunal coinciding with the life and death struggle that her lawyer partner is having in a foreign land. Written and published in 2017, this read seems so current that you might have read it in the newspaper today. The author has the advantage of being a teaching pastor, an experienced lawyer who deals with national affairs, and the author of 10 other thrillers. It's 400 plus pages of pure enjoyment.
