About the Book


(This book is the screenplay format of the story)

An action-suspense movie for the 'thinking man'.

The terrorism-in-US plot is about an assassination attempt (with an antitank missile) on the daughter of the U.S. President, as she drives to her college graduation ceremony. Meanwhile, a broader feeling - of retribution and justice - pulsates through the story. Why?

A similar movie would be The Day of the Jackal; though The One Westerner has an American context, and greater psychological depth of characterization. Meanwhile, the all-American hero who foils the plot is something of a lovable maverick, in the tradition of Die Hard.

The assassin is known to be a (white) British Muslim, but his true full identity is only revealed in the very last scene - and in a way which now proves how this taut action-suspense story has the literary depth which is associated with a Greek Tragedy.

Here is a screenplay which combines broad mass appeal with high literary standards.

About the Author:
The Author and this Screenplay

With regard to this screenplay it might be noted that, when he was much younger, the author served with the British Army in a tour against terrorism. His role was a Rifleman, - the UK equivalent of a GI. Although he now jokes that - as a 'bookish type' - he was the 'worst soldier in the British Army', his service was regular and full time.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

British author Jon Lee Junior (Jonathan Lee) has written 8 critically acclaimed, full-length books.

He maintains that writing is a vocation which requires years of dedication. The result is that his books are enjoyable, understandable and easy to read - but also serious, informed and classically well-written. He believes in "urging up" - which is the opposite of the modern disease of dumbing down. Good writing should be classy but not artsy.

Jon Lee Junior has lived and taught in East Asia for 15 years. Much of this time was spent in background historical research for his controversial Japanese thriller, 'The Kyoto Complex', and for his screwball comedy series, 'A Coward in . . .'.

During his travels, he has had the pleasure of working alongside many North Americans (and Australasians) and so his writing is mid-Atlantic in tone, vocabulary and national idioms. It can be enjoyed by any English-speaking community.

Despite his self-consciously fuddy-duddy and old-fashioned attention to detail, Jon Lee Junior is a truly international writer - and the humorously sane voice of our insane age. In these regards - as in so many others - his 'aristocratic standards' are at the same time representative of today's world and accessible to all people.

His hometown is Portsmouth in the UK, a city that is rich in history and the life of great writers, (even though its own residents gleefully laugh at Portsmouth's lack of high culture).
