In 2044, America is on the brink-its government locked in a merciless, endless shutdown. The nation's economy is in free fall. With no hope of compromise, the silent majority finally reaches its tipping point.
When Jack Sanborn, a UNC Law professor, utters a dangerous idea in a crowded lecture hall, it sparks what feels like a revolution. Split the two-party monopoly and give democracy back to the people. Soon after a student video of his talk smashes viral records, Sanborn finds himself willed by the people to make an improbable run for president.
He quickly enters a viper's den of attack dog journalists, enigmatic billionaires, vengeful ex-clients and crooked politicians, led by House Speaker Clay Overton, a Dark Lord of politics who has something on everyone, including Jack-and is ready to unleash hell to achieve his ultimate ambition.
