When Totems Fall

50,000 Chinese boots on American soil without a single shot fired. Two men hold the power to reverse the fate of millions... and avoid the unthinkable for billions more. Iraq/Afghan Vet Zeb Dalton can't believe his eyes: Seattle's beloved icon--the Space Needle--lays draped in gold stars on red. Having escaped captivity through mountainous terrain, he's slipped back into what is now foreign, enemy territory. Trying to set things right again in his native city, the retired signal corpsman faces the daunting forces of an invading nation-state and his own turbulent past. From the other side of the world, Chinese tech CEO Junjie Zang realizes he has made a terrible bargain. Enabling leaders in Beijing to act on their expansionist ideals has brought him great wealth while at the same time impoverishing his soul--and that of his entire nation. Fleeing his own countrymen, Zang weaves his way to a hopeful path of reprisal, though one leaving an ever-growing body count in its wake. Unaware of the each other's efforts, these men labor to reverse the tide of eastern aggressions before time and options run out. And when the only choice remaining is the unimaginable, who gets to decide?
