A completely unpredictable action drama, Rack and Ruin is a compelling story written around the precarious economic conditions in America today. It is the story of how America is torn apart by violence and tyranny, about the short step from social upheaval to de facto dictatorship. But mostly it is the story of the intense friendship between two men devoted to each other and to the women they love. That friendship drives one to undertake a dangerous journey back to America from Iraq. Together their actions and deeds propel a nation back to sanity from the brink of chaos and civil war.
