"I was swept up and spat out at the end."

Idealistic youth and dangerous love clash with the dark secrets of a nation on the brink in this high-wire thriller that looks at history through an altered lens.

In summer 1944, Riley Danovan seeks to escape the hardscrabble streets of the nation's capital, Philadelphia. Now 22 and in love, he believes hard work, faith, and loyalty will lead him to fulfilling his dreams. Yet in a world dominated by the centuries-old Spanish Empire, Riley's Federation of America is a young, ambitious nation - perhaps too ambitious. For there are forces who need pawns in their coming crusade. Will Riley escape their reach?

In late 1982, war rages and a decisive battle looms. Against this backdrop, Virginia Maxwell takes on a desperate mission to find proof that this latest chaos was given birth by a devastating conspiracy launched in summer 1944 - a time she remembers all too well. Her life - and that of her fragile 11-year-old son - hang by a thread as she is chased by an enemy from the distant past.
However, something dark and ageless awaits them all in this story of love gone awry as patriots, siblings, mothers, and sons turn to obsessive pursuits born of loss, betrayal, and guilt.
