Product Description
For Jon and Erin Bennett, the world seems to be spinning dangerously out of control. A new dictator is rising in Iraq. China is making threatening new moves toward Taiwan. North Korean forces appear ready to strike south. Israel is feverishly trying to complete the Third Temple. Oil prices are surging. And in the wake of an horrific war in the Middle East, President James MacPherson's second term is coming to an end. Now the battle to succeed him is heating up into one of the most fiercely contested presidential elections in American history, and the Bennetts realize the stakes could not be higher. Who will lead a bitterly divided country over the next four years? What can the U.S. do to shape the new world order? And just what role--if any--does the U.S. play in the last days? As the presidential campaign narrows into a dead heat, the Secret Service learns of a catastrophic plot to assassinate one of the candidates--but which one, and can the terrorists be stopped in time?

• Exciting Picture Of The End Times. 10 May, 2008
Rosenberg captures the attention of his readers from the first page again. It was a great read as it explores a possible scenario of what will happen to the USA in the next few years.
Rosenberg's imagination catapults the readers mind into examining their own lives to see if they are ready for the End. It puts the meaning of life into perspective with what is really important in the event that as a Christian has been caught up in the values of the world. In the end, it shows how insignificant these things are.
A compelling book. A great Read....and a life changer if you are ready!

• Fantastic Thriller 12 May, 2008
Dead Heat is a gripping thriller that captures the reader from the first chapter. Reading about the end times prophecy as current events, made it impossible to put down. Hopefully, that state of affairs will not disable our nation as in the book, but Dead Heat made me aware that we must be ever vigilent to stop those who seek to destroy Israel and the United States. Thank you Joel Rosenberg for giving us a deeper understanding of the prophecies in the Bible and a glimpse of how we can have a brighter future in Christ.

• Plot Suicide 11 May, 2008
Following on the heels of The Copper Scroll, possibly the most positive book in the series, Dead Heat is certainly the most negative. In the introduction, Rosenberg states that this book is the final one in the series originating out of The Last Jihad, which was not initially meant to be part of a series at all. One might suspect that Rosenberg might, once again, be persuaded to continue the series, as he has before, but after only a few pages his determination to end the series becomes quite clear. Dead Heat is a story that has no plot beyond the utter destruction of its principle characters. Three-hundred-seventy-four pages appears to be what it takes to destroy everything. Still, it's no a book to be put down and forgotten about. The writing is as sophisticated as the previous books. Is it worth the read? Certainly, but not if you're feeling depressed and have a gun in the closet.

• Kept My Attention 09 May, 2008
I had a hard time putting this book down. I recommend reading the other 4 books in the series first. The series makes you think about how quickly things can change and how quickly end-time prophecy can be fulfilled.
