The implications of the Russian incursion bloom into the terrifying likelihood a one-sided nuclear strike against the American West.

As the president pleads with Native Americans for assistance, he discovers they have earthshaking secrets of their own. Social justice, indigenous rights and old wounds challenge an alliance that could either save America, or turn it down the path of a long, dark age.
