John Saxton is thrown into the nightmare of Salisbury prison and Castle Thunder, where survival is a daily gamble.
Pursued by the ruthless Major Horatio Garrow and his brutish companion Harley Blackstone, Saxton must escape or be crushed by the weight of war and betrayal.
From the grave of his father, Lucas Garrow begins a tortured quest for stolen treasure—driven by vengeance, twisted by love, and poisoned by greed. What begins as devotion to the Confederate “Cause” spirals into a deadly confrontation that will shape the future.
Years later, in a fractured post-war America, Lucas returns -addicted, radicalized, and allied with the Ku Klux Klan. His vision: a reborn Confederacy. His target: the destruction of a fragile nation and a mountaintop sanctuary called Harambee, a utopia built on unity and hope.
From the ashes of war to the edge of revolution, this is a story of survival, obsession, and the fight for America’s soul.
When a group of PhD students called The Dragon Pit decide to "Make a Difference” for their annual project, they agree the war on terror can only be won by fighting fire with fire by getting on the same level as the terrorists.
