The Western Awakening Quartet follows the lives and loves of three families - American, British, and Israeli - through the tumultuous first quarter of the 21st Century. In this second book, it is early 2016. The United Kingdom's economy is wrecked. The nation is a subsidiary of the bankrupt European Union. Gibraltar, the Falklands, and all British oil and gas fields are taken by the EU. A group of British entrepreneurs and professionals plan a revolution and seek support from the British military. Then the ruling elite kidnaps an Army veteran's child for sale to foreigners and the British flip from endurance to ultraviolence. Over a million demonstrators march on Parliament. This is no ordinary demo. We the People have high-tech weapons and coordinate using smartphones. Hackers disable the government's networks and databases. Ex-soldiers give armed cover. Drones feed battlefield intel. Then, depending which side you're on, it's either the best of times or the worst of times.
