Zero Sum Conclusion - Paperback

by Thomas Lopinski (Author)

In a world reshaped by the seismic events of the Second Civil War of 2033, where chaos reigns and uncertainty looms, Zero Sum Conclusion challenges perceptions and ignites conversations.

Set against the backdrop where crime, greed, and political discord grip the nation, Zero Sum Conclusion presents a provocative vision of a society in upheaval. In a bold departure from the norm, every eighteen-year-old is endowed with a million-dollar windfall in lieu of traditional healthcare, Social Security, and Medicare, fundamentally altering the social and economic landscape.

But the transformation doesn't end there. Political divisions are replaced with a novel classification system, assigning citizens as Front-Loaders or Back-Enders based on their chosen lifestyle and timing of their financial windfall.

As corporations assume control of governmental functions, promising fiscal efficiency and a purge of misinformation, questions abound: What unforeseen consequences await in this brave new world?

Enter FBI agent Edgar Gorman, whose life starts to unravel in the wake of a mysterious computer glitch that alters his very identity.

Amidst the chaos, he crosses paths with the enigmatic Ketchum, a young rebel who's also trying to navigate the treacherous landscape of a society in flux. Their fates intertwine in a high-stakes game of survival and redemption that defies expectations.

Zero Sum Conclusion is more than a work of fiction, it's a scathing satire that delves deep into the socio-political currents of our time, offering a stark warning of the perils that could lie ahead.

With a fast-paced narrative, sharp characters, and thought-provoking themes, you'll find yourself talking about Zero Sum Conclusion long after you finish the final page.
