The Rainbow Option - Michael McCarthy

America has become a different land. Gangs and hunger stalk the nation and most aspects of life are controlled by big government. Small resistance groups escape to refuges called ARKS, working to restore freedom.

After Federal Judge Barry Block blocks new super-seeds that can save Africa from famine, he's abducted to the Sierra Nevada wilderness where he must learn to grow his own food. While there he finds the humility to ask for help from a Higher Power. When he is returned, he joins with the resistance movement to sabotage the petty tyrannies inflicted on Americans. Meanwhile, eighteen-year-old Shoshone Joseph Wakini becomes the leader of a band of ARK survivors after he helps them evade predator drones. When the government begins infecting the ARKS with a deadly virus, brilliant African-American botanist Dr. Grace Washington and her software genius husband Isaiah Mercury risk their lives to develop a cure. As the nation erupts into anarchy, a promise called The Rainbow Option is born.

In this thrilling sequel to The Noah Option, as Americans struggle to survive under a flood of government oppression, two freedom fighters must find a solution before it is too late for the nation.
