It's a new day in America--but old contracts must still be paid--Jack
McEnroe is a construction worker with an unusual job: building a prison
for terrorists. Like his neighbors in Red Rock, Wyoming, Jack isn't
particularly concerned about politics. In a depressed rural economy,
he's just grateful to have a job. Jack's boss, Dave Fetters, is
grateful, too: he has a no-bid, cost-plus contract issued by the
previous administration. It's his last chance to get rich, and he's
making the most of it.
But Dave is cooking the books, passing inflated costs along to defense
contractor Halcyon Corporation--and Jack's ex-wife, Kyla, plans to blow
the whistle. Suddenly, everyone Jack cares about, including his two
young children, is in danger. As the first winter snows fall in the
rugged mountains, Jack must navigate a razor-wire labyrinth to rescue
those he loves. And the true price of liberty, he discovers, is paid not
in dollars, but human life.
