Product DescriptionFor 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?

Rating: - Outstanding
Joel has done it again. This novel is so prophetically linked to what is happening in our time. Everyone will be intrigued and challenged to compare what Joel is saying in his novel with what scripture says will be happening in the last days. I recommend this read to everyone!!
Rating: - Excellent political thriller
Joel Rosenberg amazes me. His research alone must take so much time before he even starts a new book. I love how he weaves the story around biblical prophecy. He has become one of my favorite authors and I have read everything he had written so far.
Rating: - Seriously overburdened with religion
Ok so let me start by saying that I picked up this book and didn't realize it was part of a series (my bad) and I didn't know it had heavy religious overtones (again, my bad)
When this book puts away the "you must accept Jesus Christ as your savior" rhetoric, it is very, very good.
In fact after the first 10 chapters I looked it up to see if there were other novels in a series as some characters were obviously previously introduced. I wanted to put an order in for all ... Read More
Rating: - One of the Best Books I Have Ever Read!
I just finished reading "Dead Heat" today and short of saying "WOW" I am at something of a loss for words. I have followed Joel Rosenberg from "The Last Jihad" until now and I have enjoyed all of the books in the series, but "Dead Heat" blows them all away. Out of five stars, this one deserves a seven. I would place this book in the top two or three fiction books I have ever read and in the top 10 of all books I have read.
I will not give any of the story away for those who have yet ... Read More
Rating: - Mind-blowing-imagination-soon-to-be-fulfilled Ancient Prophecies
Mr. Rosenberg is a fine fiction and non-fiction writer. He writes with full understanding of Ancient Prophecies (told by Ezekiel, Zechariah, Daniel, etc.).
With all of modern technologies flowing worldwide, we'd be lucky if this action-filled-page-turning fictional book is only just that.
I highly recommend reading this book as well as recommending it to the silver screen.
