Blue Fire by John Gilstrap

From the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author John Gilstrap, a new Victoria Emerson Thriller. With America brought to the brink of destruction, one woman becomes the last hope of a nation and its people.

One-time congressional representative Victoria Emerson has become the leader of a small town in West Virginia, where it's a struggle just to provide food and shelter. Progress is encouraging-until one morning her son sounds the alarm "Blue Fire!"-the code phrase for imminent danger.

A renegade band of National Guardsmen wants to take over the town and steal its resources. They've got the firepower to eliminate anyone who puts up a fight. But Victoria swore an oath to defend her people. It's time to tap into the traditional American values of courage, ingenuity, and patriotism-and fight fire with fire.
