Synopsis
How much would you sacrifice in the name of loyalty? Otis Oppenheimer never once asked himself this question. He should have. Young, and eager to impress, Otis knew that he was being pulled into something special when, in 1986, he and a dozen fellow agents were handpicked by Ronald Reagan and assigned to the Commander-in-Chief's secret pet project the Glass Onion initiative. The GO team's task seemed simple. Spread across the globe, Otis and his agency colleagues were plunged into a search for a mythical onion sculpted in glass. The glass talisman offered its owner a window into the future. Reagan and Pentagon officials knew that a superpower with the ability to see tomorrow would be the unquestionable world leader in the dawning new century. The Gipper believed that the onion was within reach. So did the loyal members of team GO. Two decades into the search, Reagan is dead but his dream venture lives on in the new millennium, much to the chagrin of those who find themselves ensnared in a go-nowhere assignment from which resignation is not an option. The GO team members-those who have not burned out or perishedare bitter, exhausted, and disenfranchised. None more so than Oppenheimer. Years of deception and layers of subterfuge have made Otis a stranger to his wife and child. He has seen friends driven mad by the mission, brilliant minds ground to fine powder. The GO team is not alone in its casualties, for other nations have also joined the hunt. The long search is nearly over. Centuries without a master, the glass onion longs to share its many secrets. But can something so elusive truly remain captive for long? Glass Onion, an espionage thriller with a supernatural slant, is the debut novel by graphic novelist David Yurkovich, whose works of graphic fiction include Less Than Heroes, Altercations, and Death by Chocolate: Redux., How much would you sacrifice in the name of loyalty? Otis Oppenheimer never once pondered this question. He should have. Young and eager to prove himself, Otis felt the pull of something extraordinary when, in 1986, he and a select group of agents were handpicked by Ronald Reagan for a clandestine mission known as the Glass Onion initiative. The task seemed straightforward: scour the globe for a mythical glass onion, rumored to grant its possessor glimpses into the future. Reagan and Pentagon officials believed that control over such foresight would secure unparalleled global dominance in the approaching century. The optimism of Reagan, and the fervor of the GO team, sustained them through two decades of relentless pursuit, even after Reagan's passing. Yet, as the new millennium unfolds, the once-idealistic agents find themselves trapped in a seemingly endless mission, devoid of hope or escape. Those who haven't succumbed to exhaustion or worse are embittered shadows of their former selves. Among them, Otis Oppenheimer stands out, estranged from his family and haunted by the toll of deception and subterfuge. As the hunt nears its conclusion, the elusive glass onion seems poised to reveal its secrets. But can something so enigmatic be held captive forever? "Glass Onion," a thrilling blend of espionage and the supernatural, marks the debut novel of David Yurkovich, renowned for his graphic novels such as Less Than Heroes , Altercations , and Death by Chocolate: Redux.

- e***n (390)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaGreat transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe
