America is fracturing. A hidden cabal is moving. And three people hold the last pieces of the truth.
James Callan, a Navy veteran still carrying the weight of old grief, built a stable life after service-until coordinated attacks rip through the country and push the nation toward collapse. As fear spreads and systems fail, James is drawn back into contact with Sarah Whitaker, an intelligence officer who once shared his future before duty and tragedy tore them apart.
Their reunion is unexpected... and short-lived. A devastating final strike, a manufactured enemy, and a surge of political violence threaten not only their second chance but the country itself.
Watching from the shadows is Sam Jameson, a reclusive tech billionaire who walked away from the NSA decades ago. He's spent years preparing for the moment America's divisions would be weaponized-and now that day has come. As the attacks escalate, Sam activates the hidden network he hoped he'd never need.
With the nation unraveling and civil conflict looming, James, Sarah, and Sam must confront the forces working to shatter what remains of the Republic. To stop the collapse, they'll have to decide whom they can trust... and what they're willing to sacrifice when the truth is more dangerous than the enemy in front of them.
And Still We Stood is a gripping, near-future political thriller-rich with tension, human resilience, and unsettling plausibility-about what it means to stand firm when the nation falls apart.
