      In a crumpled Seattle of 2040, veiled women navigate bustling streets where alcohol is replaced by Jihad Cola, and mosques dominate the skyline. Following nuclear attacks on New York, Washington, D.C., and Mecca—blamed on Israel—a civil war erupts, dividing the nation into an Islamic republic in Seattle and a Christian Bible Belt in the South. Amidst this chaos, the future still holds Super Bowls and Academy Awards, but terror and state control reign. Young historian Sarah Dougan uncovers evidence suggesting the attacks may not have been orchestrated by Israel, a revelation that could destabilize the nation. When Sarah goes missing, Rakkim Epps, her secret lover and a former elite warrior, is tasked by the Islamic republic's security chief to find her at any cost. As Rakkim searches, he is pursued by Darwin, a psychopathic killer from his past. To survive, Rakkim must become Darwin's assassin, leading to a bloody chase through the Islamic States of America. As they fight to expose the truth, Rakkim and Sarah must evade Darwin and confront the real perpetrators behind the attacks. Can they deliver the truth before it’s too late? Robert Ferrigno's gripping narrative explores a chilling future where a divided nation grapples with its fate.

      When Frank Thorpe, a deeply moral former undercover operative, sees a hard-charging art dealer knock down a Latino child in LAX airport, he decides to teach him a lesson. But Thorpe's plans get a little out of hand, and Thorpe becomes immersed in a criminal underworld peopled by a drug dealing surfer with a socially-climbing wife, two mentally challenged goons with a penchant for violence, and a vicious Romanian named Vlad. The Wake-Up is an absolutely irresistible, outrageously comic thriller that starts off with a bang and never lets up until the end.
