In the year 2050 — after California has seceded, and church and state bleed together — Agent Alicia Mora is approached by "Gilani," a resistance spy with word of Mora's estranged sister. Her sister has risen high in the American insurgency, is planning a large-scale attack, and wants to get Mora to a safe zone. But before Mora can make up her mind, she and the spy are cornered by immigration cops, and the spy kills them. On the run with a man she scarcely trusts, Mora must decide where her allegiance lies — with the flawed regime or the flawed resistance.
