Freedom Lost by Mark a Handy https://www.amazon.com/Freedom-Lost-Mark-Handy/dp/1634178920 The conspiracy theorists were right! Who knew? A renegade president has used FEMA and government loopholes to rescind the Constitution, dismiss Congress, and all but appoint himself King Lording I. He rules with an iron fist and a callous disregard for human life. Oppose him and die. But true American nature begins to bleed through and dissent leads to rebellion. At the core of the resistance is Mace Wallace, lone survivor of the Cochise Stronghold Massacre. The Arizona militia SASS, Southern Arizona Sportsman’s Society, is wiped out at that monument for daring to resist Lording when he makes his power grab. Just before the final attack that leaves a radioactive crater, Mace is sent to enlist the help of the Arizona governor. After two years of evading capture, Mace joins the resistance in Chicago. The resistance, organized by the mysterious Third, has been a debris choked river, pushing to break through. Its members pace their imposed, caged existence, eager for the fight to regain their freedom. Mace comes up with a plan to shake things up and succeeds on an epic scale. Somehow, Mace is recognized and, with Lording’s goons close on their heels, the local resistance leaders, Dell and Layla, whisk Mace through the streets of Chicago. A scheme on a national level develops and Mace, along with his newfound friends, heads back to Arizona, where it all started for him. The country as a whole is a powder keg, ready to blow. Mace becomes the spark that lights that fuel and fires up a nation in the process. About the author Mark A. Handy is a US veteran and college graduate. With a deep concern for our country, he writes to evoke a sense of awareness of just how wrong things could go.
