The presidency is up for grabs-and the outcome may be decided before a single vote is cast.

Felicia Reyes is reshaping the 2028 presidential race. Independent. Fresh. Exactly what a disillusioned nation is looking for.

There's just one problem: she may not be eligible to serve.

Scott Higgins thought he'd left war behind.

Retired from the shadows and determined to live quietly, he has no interest in reliving the decisions that once defined his life. But when a series of politically motivated killings shocks a nation already divided by fear and distrust, Scott is pulled back into a world he hoped never to see again.

What begins as an effort to understand the murders quickly becomes something far more dangerous.

As the implications of the attacks become clear, Scott sees the threads of a conspiracy stretching toward the highest levels of government-one fueled by ideology, vengeance, and a growing belief that democracy itself has failed.

Elliott Light grew up outside Washington, D.C., in McLean, Virginia, before the beltway encircled the capital city, before farms were turned into housing developments, and before open fields became mega-malls. Light attended both engineering and law school (apparently, unable to make up his mind). He spent three decades practicing law, including environmental, energy, contract, telecommunications, and patent law. (Do you see a pattern here?) But he yearned to be a teller of stories that both entertain and enlighten, and in 2002, his first book, "Lonesome Song", was published. "Chain Thinking" (2003), "The Gene Police" (2018), "Throwaways" (2020), and "The Jackson River Bridge" (2023) followed. 'The Last Rights", published in 2025 was his sixth novel before embarking on this current series. Light enjoys trying Asian-inspired recipes, experimenting with his air fryer (you don't need one, but it really is fun), and reading about new energy technologies (superhot geothermal looks promising). When he's not traveling with his spouse, Sonya, or not writing, he is a dedicated servant to their cat, Feste.
