Series: Information War – Book XIII

By [Author Name]

What if the most dangerous leader wasn’t an anomaly—but a prototype?

In this searing exposé-meets-political-thriller, The Inheritance Betrayed takes readers on a jaw-dropping journey through the making—and marketing—of a modern-day messiah. From gilded towers to social media echo chambers, it charts the rise of a man manufactured for the moment... and the democracy he left fractured in his wake.

Through meticulously researched chapters and dramatic narrative momentum, this book reveals:

• How a fortune built on illusion fueled a cult of personality

• Why reality TV became training grounds for autocracy

• How institutions were not destroyed—but repurposed

• Why January 6 wasn’t the end—but a dress rehearsal

• How AI, propaganda, and civic amnesia could usher in the next, smarter autocrat

✔️ Crave political nonfiction with narrative edge
✔️ Want to understand the rise of Trumpism beyond the man
✔️ Are educators, organizers, or students of democracy
✔️ Loved Surviving Autocracy by Masha Gessen or It Can’t Happen Here by Sinclair Lewis
✔️ Believe memory is a civic act—and forgetting is a political tool
