Beset - Isaac Willhoite

Jordan is a boy on the streets of an America bifurcated by civil conflict, in a world rocked by another global war.

He must initiate the dangerous trek across the war torn demarcation zone to reunite with his brother and his expectant wife: the only family he has left.

On his journey he meets Jeremiah. A man posessed of a library of knowledge and skill that belies a terrible secret.

Promising to help Jordan make his perilous crossing and find his brother, they become the target of a murderous group of white supremacists. They are also hounded day and night by a man who never sleeps, and whos psychological and pharmacological conditioning has fashioned him into the ultimate weapon of the state.

Against all odds, they must draw upon their scarce resources and the strength of the chance bond to survive.
