Britain voted. Someone made sure the result could not finish. At 22:06 on general-election night, seven British count centres are attacked. The obvious explanation is terrorism.

Four other counts are thrown into chaos but survive. By morning, Britain still has a government. It still has functioning courts, police, armed forces and ...

In Sedition, Marcus Alexander Gadson uncovers these episodes of civil unrest and examines how state governments handled them.

A doctor bound by an oath she can't put down. An agent torn between the man and the office. Together they commit ...
