The U.S. languishes within the Greatest Depression and one State, alone, has broken free, achieving an economic miracle. This success puts it directly in the sights of a threatened Federal Government. An autocratic President Rivera must make this State come to heel, or others may follow. To destroy this renaissance, Rivera must discover the inner workings, the technologies and secrets of the lone State's success and a potential path to its destruction. He needs a spy. And the perfect candidate, Stillwater, is plucked from within the feared and despised Department of Domestic Disturbances (DDD) to spy and betray his home State. The Lt. Governor,Ben Warner, unsuccessfully tries to 'turn' his boyhood friend, Stillwater, to the State's side. But he is not giving up. In this second book of the trilogy, Ben is russtling up supplies for Wyoming's standoff with the Federal government, unaware Hiroto has his back...and Tex's front. Stillwater's fantasized rendevouz with Samantha takes a surprising turn when he uncovers all of Wyoming's secrets direct from the inner circle. Wystar is not only revealed, but becomes central to an electrified and explosive ending while Joshua discovers his true past.
