title: Trust Your Enemies: A Political Thriller. A story of power and corruption, love and betrayaland moral redemption
author:  Mark Tier 
description: <i>"Trust Your Enemies</i> is about many of the same issues as <i>Atlas Shrugged</i>, but thrashed out on Australian soil. And with a little more subtlety." -- <i>DailyReckoning.com.au</i><br /><br />Libertarian novels tend to either be complex thought-provoking treatises [like] Ayn Rand's <i>Atlas Shrugged</i>, or reference-laden stories where every line of conversation is predictable by anyone who has read anything libertarian, and will likely only serve to annoy anyone who hasn't. <i>Trust Your Enemies</i> smashes this dichotomy and establishes a third kind: a novel driven primarily through plot, that gets its message across not through long speeches and introspective discussion, but through a gripping progression of events.... A standout amongst libertarian novels. -- <i>Journal of Peace and Prosperity</i><br /><br />"Intensely compelling. [A] political thriller that, in my opinion, rivals anything published to date, fiction-wise--including Ayn Rand's <i>Atlas Shrugged</i> and <i>The Fountainhead."</i>  Anthony Wile, <i>thedailybell.com</i>
