Executive Justice: Revised: Sequel to Executive Vengeance

What will happen in this contemporary novel pitting America’s red, blue, and neutral states against each other?

In 2026, America’s liberal blue states secede, dividing the former United States into three countries: the Confederation (red), the Coalition (blue), and the neutral (white) states.

In retirement, Dr. Cal Boyd and his wife Carol learn that the Confederation has arrested their son Charley in Orlando, Florida, part of a new country formed when the Coalition seceded following Donald Trump’s 2024 election victory.

The Boyds travel to Florida to free Charley, but must struggle with corrupt officials of the Confederation, which has retrogressed into the post-Civil War South, effectively legalizing slavery and harassing minorities.

The Boyds bribe officials to see their son, who is being held as a Coalition (blue states) spy. Charley remains under enhanced interrogation after he refuses to disclose what he has learned in his CIA cover job, developing software against the Confederation’s Russian-developed ransomware, their main source of hard currency.

Cal and Carol gather a team to liberate Charley, but in the meantime, the Confederation has invaded the neutral white states to hijack their industrial productivity.

Is this a likely scenario or purely fiction?
