What if the entire U.S. government vanished in seconds?
A single explosion. The President. The Vice President. The Speaker of the House—gone.
In a heartbeat, the leadership of the most powerful nation on Earth is erased.
Christopher Ames never asked for power. As a behind-the-scenes political advisor, he had no vote, no office, and no desire to lead. But when a catastrophic attack collapses the chain of command, he's thrust into the Oval Office under emergency protocol.
Now, America teeters on the edge of chaos.
The media calls him unqualified. The public questions his legitimacy. A rising domestic militia wants him dead. And the enemies of the state? They smell blood in the water.
But Ames has a secret. He's not here to play politics—he's here to rebuild America from the ashes... or die trying.
Smart, cinematic, and chillingly realistic—A Nation Without delivers a high-stakes political thriller that grabs you from the first page and doesn't let go.
