Synopsis
In a near-future America torn apart by political polarization, "The Algerian" follows Jack Kolesaar, an ordinary man who becomes an extraordinary killer. Disillusioned with the direction of his country and convinced that voting can't fix what's broken, Jack has joined a shadowy organization known as "The Movement" that draws inspiration from the Algerian independence fighters who drove out French colonists through brutal guerrilla warfare. Operating as a lone wolf assassin, Jack methodically eliminates those he sees as enemies of traditional American values—from drag queens to progressive pastors. His clinical approach to killing contrasts sharply with his artistic sensibilities and philosophical musings about beauty, civilization, and decay. When he meets Stefanie, a waypoint woman who assists Movement operatives, and later Tina, a church administrator eager to eliminate her progressive pastor, Jack finds himself navigating unfamiliar emotional territory while continuing his lethal mission. Under the spiritual guidance of Father Conrad, a Catholic priest with revolutionary leanings, Jack's campaign of targeted violence expands. As bodies pile up and authorities close in, Jack must decide how far he's willing to go and what personal connections he can maintain in a life dedicated to destruction in service of rebirth. Unflinching and provocative, "The Algerian" offers a disturbing glimpse into the mind of a man who believes himself a patriot while committing acts of terrorism. If you enjoyed "American War," "Vigilante," and "The Turner Diaries," you'll love "The Algerian."
