It has been eight months since Day left June in Denver. The Republic is in much better shape than it was under the young Elector Primo’s father. Even the Patriots feel that the common man is being treated more fairly. However, the military is not very strong. Thomas and Commander Jameson are to be executed for killing June’s brother.

Daniel “Day” Wing and his dearly beloved younger brother Eden are living in San Francisco. Lucy is the caretaker for Eden who remains blind from the aftereffects of having been infected by the plague. When Day is summoned to a banquet to be held in Denver, he is suspicious. The young Elector Primo (Anden) has asked June Iparis to convince Day to travel to Denver. Despite not having seen each other for many months, Day can’t resist the invitation.

The Colonies have threatened the Republic. If the Republic does not send a cure for the newly released plague to them, there will be war. The Chancellor of the Colonies insists that Anden hand over Eden so that their doctors can determine a cure for the plague. Day will never let that happen!

Before anyone can believe it, the Colonies stage an all-out attack on Denver. They have hired the Confederate Nations of Africa to bolster their military. Thomas and Commander Jameson escape during the attack! The Patriots reunite to help the Republic attack the Colonies.  Everyone in Denver is evacuated to Los Angeles.

Will the Elector Primo be able to get help from Antarctica to fight the attack from the Colonies? Will Day be able to keep Eden safe from harm? Will June and Day (the star-crossed lovers) be reunited?
