ABOUT THIS BOOK: This story is fiction and much like an alternate timeline because no one would have ever believed it otherwise, until now. It’s about a group of resisters fighting to save democracy, hunted by an administration that means to wipe them from the face of the Earth.

Their goal is to save their beloved freedom and democracy by the next, and perhaps last, election in their lifetime. They must stop the autocracy in the only way they know of before it becomes irreversible.
