The arduous struggle for liberty endures
A year following the liberation of Kamloops, citizens have slowly begun rebuilding their devastated city as well as their lives. But no one-above all Jake Scribner-is resting easy. President Maximillian Asher has vowed at all costs to retake the Thompson-Nicola District along with the Okanagan region of southern British Columbia and northern Washington, now part of Free North America.
Jake, Mallory Hutchinson, Sarah Jane Pearce, Brian Vance, Father Julian Tuck, Chris Templeton and Bridgette Shaw join forces with freedom fighters from Kelowna and Vernon as well as a band of ragtag militiamen from Washington State. In the midst of the fiercest winter to hit the region in decades, the rebels, utilizing winter warfare guerrilla tactics, play a chancy game of cat-and-mouse against marauding superiorly-equipped Special Forces units and heavily-armed high-tech Predator drones that prowl for victims from high above.
The federal government retaliates. The resistance is forced back. An all-out conflict spreading from the rugged mountainous wilderness of British Columbia to the rain-soaked streets of Seattle ensues as various rebel groups working in unison with each other fight furiously to drive the forces of President Asher from the region once and for all.
