<p><b>An instant <i>New York Times </i>bestseller!</b></p><p><b>“Greg Iles is one of America’s great storytellers." </b>–<b>Stephen King, #1 <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author</b></p><p><b>"A first-rate political thriller."</b>–<b>John Grisham, #1 <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author</b></p><p><b>The final thrilling, page-turner in the Penn Cage series from the #1 <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author of the Natchez Burning trilogy and <i>Cemetery Road</i>, a Southern thriller about a man—and a town—rocked by anarchy and tragedy, but unbowed in the fight to save those they love.</b></p><p>Fifteen years after the events of the <i>Natchez Burning</i> trilogy, Penn Cage is alone. Nearly all his loved ones are dead, his old allies gone, and he carries a mortal secret that separates him from the world. But Penn’s exile comes to an end when a brawl at a Mississippi rap festival triggers a bloody mass shooting—an act of domestic terrorism that nearly takes the life of his daughter Annie.</p><p>As the stunned cities of Natchez and Bienville reel, antebellum plantation homes continue to burn and the deadly attacks are claimed by a Black radical group as historic acts of justice. Panic sweeps through the tourist communities, driving them inexorably toward a race war.</p><p>But what might have been only a regional sideshow of the 2024 Presidential election explodes into national prominence, thanks to the stunning ascent of Robert E. Lee White, a Southern war hero who seizes the public imagination as a third-party candidate. Dubbed “the Tik-Tok Man,” and funded by an eccentric Mississippi billionaire, Bobby White rides the glory of his Special Forces record to an unprecedented run at the White House—one unseen since the campaign of H. Ross Perot.</p><p>To triumph over the national party machines, Bobby evolves a plan of unimaginable daring. One fateful autumn weekend, with White set to declare his candidacy, the forces polarizing America line up against one another
