Former head of Special Forces Lori Rose's sudden reappearance after a year-long exile threatens the fragile peace Governor Amy Chipps has negotiated with her powerful neighbors. As hostilities intensify, the discovery of an ominous device buried in the unregulated territories shatters the balance of power, sending Amy on the run.
With increasingly powerful quakes foreboding disaster and three armies jostling for control, Amy must reclaim power while Lori must wrest the doomsday device from their enemies. But can they put aside their differences and work together before cataclysmic forces destroy the West Coast?

Person
Kagan Tumer is a science fiction author and professor of Robotics and AI. He attended seven schools in five cities in four countries, all before reaching high school. The constant upheaval taught him two things: observe the world and the people in it because you need to understand them and don't get too attached to any place or anyone because neither will be there next year. Turns out, that's pretty good training for a writer. Along the way, Kagan worked as a cafeteria food server, registrar's office clerk, print shop copier, soccer referee, math tutor, and well logging engineer. He has a PhD in computer engineering and worked on multi-robot coordination at NASA for nine years. A member of SFWA, he lives in the Pacific Northwest. His debut novel, 'Purged Souls', was a Foreword INDIES Book of the Year finalist. When not writing, he studies AI ethics, teaches robotics, and mentors future scientists.
