"When a dogmatic ideology is embraced as the prime principle of government, fundamental individual freedoms become an unacceptable threat."

Rufus Reed, a former British Special Forces officer turned controversial best-selling author, wakes up to find himself incarcerated in a secret CIA 'black-site' prison located outside the Uited States and beyond the reach of normal legal and ethical conventions. Drugged and kidnapped from his home in Marin County near San Francisco, he has been arrested under the U.S. Government's Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, under a warrant procured with fabricated evidence. But his story is only the tip of a complex and dangerous struggle for the survival of democracy in the USA.

Set against the Presidential election of 2008 An Unquiet American is a novel tht defies convention and questions the very fabric of American Democracy.
