About

Two Patriots Trying to Save America From Each OtherA new president, an Alt-Right rebellion, an assassination attempt gone horribly wrong. Body Man is a deep dive into both sides of the American political divide, a chilling cautionary tale for our times. This character-driven political/psychological thriller from a former member of the White House press corps is a cold look at the hot mess of today's America and shows how much worse things could get if we let them. Spencer is the Body Man, close personal aide to a senator who catapults to the presidency on a strong gun control platform. Carl is a body man of a different sort, a marine corps sniper with a bad conduct discharge who gets drawn into the Alt-Right movement and recruited to assassinate the new president. When the attempt goes horribly wrong, sparking mutinies in the military and riots in the streets, the president spirals into depression, giving Spencer more power than a body man should ever have. If you've lived through America's turmoil, or watched it from afar, Body Man will take you on an unforgettable and all too-realistic journey into a frighteningly near future where remaining norms are shattered, familiar lines are blurred, and more than ever, heroes and villains are defined in the eye of the beholder.
