After so much killing Peter Baird is mentally exhausted, and ready to call it quits and go home. But can he really lay down his weapons while his country is still in flames? As the second civil war rages on, Peter is once more dragged into the conflict. First into West Virginia, and then once more to the Midwest, Peter is pulled farther and farther from home. But this time, he aims to bring the fighting to an end. Will his brothers-in-arms support his cease-fire, or will they see it as a fundamental betrayal of all they've fought for? And can the President's assassin really bring about peace, or will he lose his own mind first?
