The first rule of war: Never fall for the enemy. And if you do… well, be prepared for the fallout.
Sixteen years into the Great World Famine of 2025, Dr. Caitlyn Svendsen’s patients are no longer hungry thanks to America's classified growth formula designed to outsmart crop failure, but they are still dying. The cause of their illness is a mystery that Caitlyn seeks to unravel despite the risk to her career—and life. Meanwhile, Spetsnaz Commander Kaleb Volkov is as restless as his motherland. Russia is still starving, denied access to America's growing techniques.
Caitlyn and Kaleb are the epitome of clashing personalities, raised to resent each other in a world teetering on the brink of destruction. She is Russia’s salvation. He is the eye of a storm heading for America, ready to tear her reality apart.
While America blackmails enemies and allies alike into submission with the promise of food, Russia is desperate to restore its influence in the wake of America's agricultural domination. To level the playing field, Kaleb is tasked with a mission that leads him to Caitlyn, forcing the two natural enemies to work together in a world teetering on the edge of destruction.
