A near future dystopian thriller about a woman raised as an American whose family flees the country under an authoritarian regime, and who returns years later to a nation she no longer recognizes. Tense political suspense of border run survival, hunted fugitives, prison camps and trusting no one.
No Papers. No Rights. No Place Left To Run.
Miranda Flores was raised as an American. In Malcolm Price's America, that no longer matters. When the president mandates identity chips for certain ethnic groups, her family flees to El Salvador, a country Miranda barely remembers.
Years later, civil war leaves her orphaned and alone. With nothing left to lose, she makes the journey back to the U.S. and finds a nation she doesn't recognize. The borders are kill zones. Dissenters vanish into camps. Paramilitary Red Caps rule the streets with blood and bullets.
Now Miranda is a fugitive in the country she once called home, hunted by a government agent who never gives up a target. Survival means trusting no one, staying one step ahead, and facing a colder truth: America as she knew it's dead, and she may not escape its grave.
Refuge is a standalone near-future thriller, for readers who love dystopian regimes, border-run survival stories, hunted-heroine suspense and political what-ifs. Perfect for fans of Blake Crouch, Michael Crichton and Lee Child.
