Charles Augustus Morgan is a presidential envoy, sent to restore law and order to the area. But his first order of business is to demand the confiscation of all firearms from the local population. Morgan’s offer is as ugly as the man himself: disarm or die. When John and his family get caught in the middle, the threat jeopardizes everything they’ve struggled to rebuild. Soon John encounters a group of Patriots who’ve sworn to stand against Morgan’s growing despotism. But John will learn that nothing in this new post-EMP America is what it seems—and that the deadliest threats are often the ones you didn’t see coming. less

Tormented by a past he can’t forget, John Mack is about to face the toughest fight of his life. The tiny town of Oneida, Tennessee, still reeling from the Chairman’s violent overthrow, stands in the crosshairs of Russian and Chinese armies threatening to push across the Mississippi river. With the United States fragmented and on the brink of military collapse, John will need to dig deeper than ever to defend his loved ones from enemies both foreign and domestic.

In spite of Oneida's heroic stand against the Chinese steam roller, foreign armies are poised along the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains preparing for the final assault and America's inevitable defeat. For John, turning back the tide will mean going deep behind enemy lines and organizing the very insurgency he fought so hard against in Iraq... moreIn spite of Oneida's heroic stand against the Chinese steam roller, foreign armies are poised along the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains preparing for the final assault and America's inevitable defeat.
