Description: For years UN peacekeepers have been deployed to war-torn regions of the world, now it's America's turn. A crippling terrorist attack has left the United States cities deserted, it's countryside set ablaze and the government shaken to its knees. Then in the aftermath of the attack civil war has broken out, that is until the UN arrives to restore peace. Sam Simpson is a young idealistic journalist from Canada who is looking for some adventure. So he volunteers to become a record-keeper for a UN war-crimes investigation team at work in upper New York State. While Sam and his team are travelling through the New York countryside, they are searching for evidence of war atrocities, they soon learn that death can strike from any farmhouse, road corner or rest area. But even more chilling than that is when he begins to suspect that there is a traitor in their group, who is trying not only to conceal evidence of this war crime but who is willing to kill them all to do it...
