In a conquered America, his war is just beginning.

When a nuclear EMP obliterates the U.S. power grid, the nation is shattered. The East Coast is occupied by Russia, the West by China, and the heartland is a lawless wasteland. For retired soldier Jack Callaghan, the true devastation is personal: his wife is dead, his daughter is missing, and he is left for dead with a bullet in his side.

As Jack struggles to heal his body and his spirit, a darker threat emerges. A corrupt Church, collaborating with the occupiers, is hunting the very faithful who offer him shelter. Drawn into a secret war for the soul of what remains, Jack must choose between the bloody path of the soldier he was and the redemptive path of the man he could become.

His quest for vengeance has become a mission of mercy. His fight for his daughter is now a battle for a nation''s spirit. And to save what he loves, he must first learn to forgive.
