About this ebook
Ten years later and the initial boom is over. America is in a recession and only phony government statistics tell us that everything is fine.
The Income Paradox has arrived.
In the American future, much has changed --
Now there is a northern wall and a southern wall on our borders
Getting into America is hard - getting out is even harder
Abortion is illegal again
Being LGBT is back in the shadows and illegal again
Church attendance is necessary to avoid the camps
Atheists now face a death sentence in god-fearing America
All pregnancy tests are transmitted to your church and they manage the pregnancy - even helping you choose an appropriate biblical name
English is the official language. Speaking anything else is a crime
Our military is now available for hire by other countries, and has become our largest source of government revenues.
In short, it's the sort of America some people dream of.
Strong and Wrong.
Bobby only survived the camps because of his one act of bravery. He's not a brave man. But desperation causes some people to be something they are not.
Sydney Delos is Vice President and keeps it all running. He has the President's ear and is her right-hand.. Still, he knows it's not working the way it was advertised. And he's scared. The person he loves the most is at risk from the rules he administers. Then, there is the Hinton Confession.
Chris Hinton ran the CIA for twenty three years. On his death bed, he confessed to the Reno bombing, San Diego and Boston, too. He confessed to every act of terrorism he orchestrated on behalf of the Democratic Party in order to swing elections their way. But as a life-long Republican, he didn't mention a single act done for his side, and there were many.
Now Vice President Delos must decide whether to use the confession to transform the electoral map forever.
Enrique Saba is a member of The Inbreds, a card and chip copying gang that live outside of the law. They steal your data then they steal your money. This small-time thief dreams of getting his mother and sister safely to Spain.
Americans are tired. Americans are poor. Americans have become their own huddled masses.
Americans are angry. Only a spark is needed..
And it is coming.
About the author
Steve may or may not be from Earth.
The details surrounding his birth/arrival are uncertain. His mother was certain that her baby was switched in the hospital nursery. It would explain a lot.
Born in Mississippi, Steve spent his formative years in Perth, Western Australia and has been travelling ever since, having recently finished a decade working in London.
Steve writes Satire on a Science Fiction canvas, American Dystopia & Utopia stories, and Crime Thrillers from the criminal perspective. Because he gets bored easily he bounces across genres.
If there is a common theme to Steve’s work it is the consideration of alternative answers to fundamental questions and a healthy disrespect and disregard for rules.
