ECW was one extreme contradiction piled on top of another. It was an incredibly influential company in the world of professional wrestling during the 1990s, yet it was never profitable. It portrayed itself as the ultimate in anti-authority rebellion, but its leadership was, at various points, working covertly with the two wrestling giants, the World Wrestling Federation and World Championship Wrestling. Most of all, it blurred the line between real life and the fantasy world of professional wrestling like no other company before it.

Deception, trickery, and ambush threaten to derail Eric Branson's plans shortly after his arrival in South Louisiana. Eric soon learns that the sheriff's department Keith works for has been decimated by riots and terror attacks. The infrastructure here has also been severely crippled by the same hurricane that devastated South Florida, leaving the survivors hungry and desperate in a world where law and order is impossible to enforce. For Eric, reaching Louisiana is just another step in a difficult quest that will take him overland to the Colorado Rockies in search of his daughter.

As Eric Branson meets new friends and foes in his struggle to prevent the hostile occupation of his brother’s jurisdiction and the broader Gulf Coast region, the intel he gathers leads to stunning conclusions. Eric’s focus until now has been to defend his tribe, namely, his immediate family, and the small group of friends and allies that have joined them. Will knowledge of a vast conspiracy change his priorities, or will he still choose to leave behind a nation in ruins?

In Eric Branson's line of work, taking things for granted can prove fatal. Countless successful combat missions have taught him to expect the unforeseen, even when it seems the objective is within reach. Eric has a solid plan to get his family out of the nightmare his country has fallen into, but even a highly-experienced former Navy SEAL and special operations contractor can't possibly anticipate every contingency in a hostile environment of evolving chaos.

Deputy Keith Branson and the rest of Eric’s family and friends are holding their own at Sierra Zulu, their hidden place of refuge deep in Louisiana’s Atchafalaya swamp. But enemy forces are determined to hunt them down and kill them in their quest to dominate the region and control the navigable waterways connecting the Gulf of Mexico with all points north. The growing militia consisting of new volunteers from a displaced and oppressed population are making a valiant stand against overwhelming odds, but will it be enough without outside help?

Finding Megan alive and in a place of relative safety is a major turning point in Eric Branson's quest. But even though he's reached his main objective, Eric's mission is far from over. Eric made a hard choice when he left Shauna and Jonathan behind to catch up to Megan, and he knew when he did it, there would be consequences. Determined to set things right and move on to the next stage of his plan, Eric will retrace his route into the wilderness, but this time he won't be riding alone.

Sometimes the best defense is a good offense...Now that Eric Branson and his small militia have a much better idea of what they’re up against, it’s time to go on the offensive and take the fight to the enemy. The first mission involves the rescue of the friends he and Jonathan met on the upper Atchafalaya River. But Eric Branson won’t ignore the opportunity to strike hard at the heart of the operation that is bringing so much fear and disruption to the residents of the region.

Eric Branson has done his best to mind his business and look out for his own. But when he’s backed into a corner even as his goal is in sight, Eric’s course of action is straightforward and clear. The odds aren't on his side, but experience, tenacity and courage still are. Will they be enough to save his family?

He knows he's not the only one in pursuit, and that Megan's fate may well hang on whoever finds her first.

But the former Navy SEAL and private contractor learns from his ex-wife that Megan is nearly 2000 miles away in Colorado. To get there, he must first sail across the Gulf to Louisiana, where his brother Keith is a deputy sheriff...will he find Keith still alive and patrolling his Atchafalaya River jurisdiction?
