It was a normal election year. There were two top candidates and the American people left with a choice to make - stay with the incumbent or elect ultraconservative Alfred Millstone. Elections have consequences, and Charlie Cooper and his live-in girlfriend, Annie Russell, learn this the hard way after millions of Americans elect Millstone as the new US president.

Millstone's dictator-like decrees soon fly in the face of the freedoms Charlie and Annie have always taken for granted - government officials begin to follow everyone, outrageous rules are implemented, and people's constitutional rights are violated. Those who do not follow the new rules and laws are labeled as DEFIANTS and are put on disciplinary levels. Each level has stricter consequences, including arrests and criminal sentences leading up to execution.

Food purchases are regulated, medical care is monitored, and people are quickly stripped of the freedoms they once knew. With the Millstone administration's power growing rapidly, freedom becomes a relic of the past. Charlie desperately struggles to save his family from a dark and deadly future he never imagined could be possible in the land of the free.

Captive: Book 2 is in the works and a preorder will be set up for it soon!

I hope you are all doing well and staying safe!
Happy reading!
