Red Mercury Rising (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781797463360)

A war-torn nation. A shattered mind. A search for truth that may not exist.

As America collapses into civil war, Stella-imprisoned, tortured, and haunted by a brother who may be a ghost or a memory-fights to survive the ruins. As America fractures into warring states, one woman's fight for sanity becomes a battle for the soul of a dying country.

In the not-so-distant future, America lies divided by ideology and blood as it hurtles towards the Second American Civil War. Haunted by her brother Billy, a serial killer, Stella fights her way through a collapsing world. In the fractured nation of Pacifica, Stella emerges from the ruins of a brutal experiment. Imprisoned, tortured, and haunted by a brother who may or may not be real, she flees into a world aflame with civil war.

Blending dystopian action, psychological depth, and literary soul, Red Mercury Rising is a genre-defying odyssey of identity, trauma, and an aria for a collapsing American civilization.
