This is a fictional history of the last days of peace before the beginning of the Second American Civil War. I focus on the lives of nearly one hundred people whose actions and inactions contributed to a war that fractured this nation again and cost the lives of twenty eight million men, women and children.
The book chronicles the events that occurs in the final year before the bloodless beginning of the Second American Civil War. "Whatever the reason for this civil war," Archivist Graham North said, "it is dwarfed by the simple fact that twenty eight million men, women and children vanished." This dramatization follows the actions and inactions of over one hundred people who let themselves force a nation and the world at large toward war. Religion, politics, region, language and stupidity are equally represented in vivid detail.
