White House Terror

By: David Erickson

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

The president of the United States faced a deadly threat as Secret Service director Jeremy Miller, with a vendetta against the current administration, plots an explosive takeover of the White House. Miller discreetly collaborated with Norman Erron, an ex-Marine with a grudge against the military, to execute a well-armed siege using disgruntled ex-soldiers. Their plan involved setting a fire at the Capitol to divert attention, while they captured the president and held hundreds of hostages. As the attack unfolded, Miller surprised everyone by announcing his retirement, but his true motive was revealed to be an inoperable brain tumor, driving him to destroy the administration before he died. Meanwhile, former Navy SEAL David Lee Jones, recently returned from Afghanistan and struggling with his faith and family, interviewed for a position with the Secret Service. His past mistakes cost him the job, but he took his daughter, Amy on a White House tour, hoping to reconnect with her. When the Capitol fire broke out, panic ensued, and David lost track of his daughter, Amy. David quickly finds the president, George McMullen, and they hid in the ductwork of the Whaite House. Unbeknownst to them, Amy discreetly videoed the insurgents’ actions on her phone, and later posted it to her blog on the internet. The president and David realized Amy had to be hiding nearby and searched for her. David attempted to call for help, not knowing Miller was behind the attack. David finally reached Mary Bean, the personnel director, and let the president speak to her. With the vice president and military now aware of the diversion, David and the president evade capture as the insurgents close in. The military prepares to retake the White House, but the situation is dire. David struggles to protect the wounded president, removing a bullet and keeping him alive. With no confirmation of the president's survival, the vice president, Daryel M. Saul, was sworn in as president. When the military helicopters arrived, they faced heavy resistance from the insurgents. David moved the president towards the underground bunker, only to find it blocked. They made a daring escape attempt in a limo, eventually crashing it into the pool when insurgents cut off their route. They swam to safety and headed for the basement. The real Secret Service finally located them, and drove the insurgents into a corner. Miller and most of his team were killed, while Nicholas, the tech expert, and a few others are captured. The hostages, including Amy, were rescued. David was hailed as a hero and appointed head of the Secret Service. He began to mend his relationship with Amy and her mother, Rebecca, as he reassessed his faith and priorities.
