The Final Battle for Freedom Begins
With Mara imprisoned for treason and war consuming the United Factions, Wes Calvernon uncovers a devastating betrayal—his own father, President Charles Calvernon, has been secretly working against the Dissenters. As Mara’s execution looms, Wes must confront the man who raised him in a desperate attempt to save her before it’s too late.
But freedom comes at a cost. With the North’s rebellion on the verge of collapse and Raúl’s forces tightening their grip, Mara and Wes must forge new alliances and confront old ghosts that refuse to stay buried. In a battle where love and sacrifice collide, they must decide if they have the strength to rise as the leaders their people need—or if they will crumble beneath the weight of their pasts?
