"This one is fresh, intelligent, and emotional with a plot that
envisions an alternate reality hard to dismiss as unreal. It's a
legal thriller, with a big twist, stirring and imaginative,
brimming with skullduggery, that will have you asking: is this
possible?"-- New York Times bestselling author Steve Berry Better
Call Saul meets Ben Winter's The Last Policeman in this first
volume in an explosive legal thriller series set in the world of
Tropic of Kansas--a finalist for the 2018 Campbell Award for best
science fiction novel of the year. Defeated in a devastating war
with China and ravaged by climate change, America is on the brink
of a bloody civil war. Seizing power after a controversial
election, the ruling regime has begun cracking down on dissidents
fighting the nation's slide toward dictatorship. For Donny Kimoe,
chaos is good for business. He's a lawyer who makes his living
defending enemies of the state. His newest client, young filmmaker
Xelina Rocafuerte, witnessed the murder of an opposition leader and
is now accused of terrorism. To save her from the only sentence
worse than death, Donny has to extract justice from a system that
has abandoned the rule of law. That means breaking the rules--and
risking the same fate as his clients. When Donny bungles Xelina's
initial hearing, he has only days to save the young woman from
being transferred to a detention camp from which no one returns.
His only chance of winning is to find the truth--a search that
begins with the opposition leader's death and leads to a dark
conspiracy reaching the highest echelons of power. Now, Donny isn't
just fighting for his client's life--he's battling for his own. But
as the trial in the top secret court begins, Xelina's friends set
into motion a revolutionary response that could destroy the case.
And when another case unexpectedly collides with Xelina's, Donny
uncovers even more devastating secrets, knowledge that will force
him to choose between saving one client . . . or the future of the
entire country.
