This book takes place in the near-future. The government has been seized by the Unionists, any propaganda that the US is still a free country has long since passed, and the hunt is on for any insurgent who committed a perceived crime against the homeland. Warren Linder, a former CIA agent now working with the newly formed DSS, hunts these exiles, whether they are in the US or abroad.A mission goes wrong in Beirut, and Linder is falsely accused of collaborating with the enemy. Arrested, interrogated and tortured, he is finally sent to a Corrective Labor Camp in the Yukon’s far north. Fighting for survival and searching for meaning and redemption, Linder takes the reader on a wild ride that ranges from Beirut to the Yukon to Utah and beyond. Readers who enjoy the works of Al Franken and Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn will love this intelligent book. The plausible plot, realistic dialogue and unrelenting pace make this novel hard to put down and will leave you wanting more.To be honest, I'm not sure why Preston Fleming’s books haven't yet made it onto the NY Times Bestseller List – this is an author to watch! I am happy to recommend this book with a full five-star rating.
