As the Second American Civil War escalates, Danny Wright (Divided We Fall; Burning Nation) finds himself in the middle of it. Danny and friends grow disillusioned with the war effort after the U.S. fractures into numerous independent countries and the threat of international nuclear action looms. Character growth is strong as the protagonists suffer through painful losses; action scenes propel the story forward.
