The Race of Her Life, the sequel to Len Cohen's exciting first novel Madam Chairman, once again places political leader, Micki Feldsher, into a life-threatening situation. Unaware of the personal risk, she competes for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives and becomes a target of terrorists. The American branch of al-Qaeda, scheming to build their influence in the Congress, has co-opted her opponent, and is prepared to kill (remove) Micki to ensure his election. To camouflage their many removals as accidents, the terrorists employ unique murder weapons: disease-carrying, stinging insects and flesh-eating microbes, which they remotely activate and control using beams of tailored, electromagnetic radiation. Micki knows that her under-funded campaign is a long-shot. But shortly before the election, on orders from his al-Qaeda handlers, her opponent publicly attacks her as a tool of Israel. The resulting flood of publicity from the national media energizes Micki's campaign. As Micki's poll numbers surge, the terrorist threat inevitably emerges. Micki's husband, Ben, is alerted to the imminent danger when his inquisitiveness reveals a surprising number of fatalities among Congressional hopefuls in incidents involving bees and mosquitoes. He gathers evidence to establish the murderous methodology, and undertakes to convince the FBI to pursue the perpetrators. The race for Micki's life is joined.

In coming to terms with her decision to publicly out her mother, Gail changed how she looks at race and heritage. With a foreword written by Kenyatta Berry, host of PBS's Genealogy Roadshow, this unique and fascinating story of coming to terms with oneself breaks down barriers.

In one day a boy's life was changed-the relative tranquility of his world was shattered forever. For fourteen years, Nsanzabavunyi Theoneste Makombe had lived in the sleepy little village of Rukumbeli. He had gone to school and played with the children in the neighborhoods surrounding his own. His family had worshipped and celebrated with these people he thought were just like him. But following the death of Rwanda's president, Habyarimana Juvenal, everything changed. His Hutu neighbors had but one mission: Kill the Tutsi-every last one of them-and make them suffer! With machetes, clubs and other weapons, the Hutu pursued the terrified Tutsi, including the family Makombe. Everyone scattered, fleeing from killers bent on torturing their victims in unspeakable ways. Just before her life was taken by a murderous mob, Theo's mother gave her teen-aged son a command that saved his life: "...Run and never give up." Learn how a Gospel chorus and a series of miracles not only helped Theo survive the thirty-day massacre, but eventually revealed the love of God to this confused, hurting young man. See how the terrible mess of his life was transformed into a powerful message of hope and forgiveness-and how the Lord can do the same thing not only for individuals but entire nations.
