Dave Anderson thought all of his problems were over. Pietro Bufonte, the Detroit mob boss who'd been after Dave for years, was dead. Dave was a local hero in Arizona after stopping a cartel attack. And his matching fingerprints had been burned off, so the government should no longer have an interest in making him disappear. Now all he has to do is figure out what he wants to do with the rest of his life, a point the larger-than-life Sheriff Shotgun John Osterman keeps making to him. But the government has a long memory. And Mexican drug cartels don't like it when you disrupt their plans. Dave finds himself in worse trouble than ever...but his rough road leads him to an unlikely ally, and an incredible opportunity. Provided he can stay alive.

The New York City subway system is overrun with the zombie-like infected. Chicago, abandoned by its mayor, is in flames. America, from coast to coast, is struggling under a collapsing health care system, skyrocketing violence, and mindless, raging infected. The White House is becoming increasingly unhinged as events spiral out of its control, sparking talk of secession from the new firebrand Texas governor.Meanwhile, our group stuck on the road and struggling desperately to get home-Jack, Disco, Matt, and Leslie-are about to make a discovery that could signal the end of this administration...or maybe the American republic itself....

During a routine background check of a Special Agent applicant an FBI lab tech discovers the young man's fingerprints are an identical match to not one but two other people already in the system. Aside from actual confessions more crimes have been solved by fingerprints than any other type of evidence, and this discovery could throw legal systems around the world into chaos--if it becomes public knowledge.Powerful government forces in the FBI and beyond immediately try to remove all the evidence--which includes the idealistic lab tech who made the discovery and Dave Anderson, the young man whose dream it has been to become an FBI Special Agent. The racially divided gritty dystopia that is modern Detroit provides the backdrop as forces move against Anderson--but young men drawn to law enforcement are rarely blank pages, and Anderson already has more than his share of secrets.The question is, who can he trust with them?

And can anything prevent the fall of the republic?
