The Coalition

She was born the day America declared the Second Revolutionary War over, but for Amelia Grant, the war was far from over. At 18 years of age, she decides to answer her call to Mandatory Civil Service with her best friend Bethany. But rather than be thrilled to be working with Bethany every day, Amelia is terrified that her secret crush for her best friend will be discovered - after all, in post-revolution America, such a relationship is grounds for arrest.

Amelia has a lot to learn about being part of The Coalition, but the only way to learn is on the job. She finds herself taking part in rescue missions, sabotaging the Central Government, and smuggling people across the border out from under the oppressive rule of Central. But while she learns the ropes, Central has been learning about the Coalition, too. The group of rebels soon find their families targeted by the terrifying Commission of the People, leading to drastic changes within the Coalition.

Civil War is threatening to overtake America as the Coalition fights to dismantle the predatory institution of the Commission of the People. But when the Coalition destroys a new government building, they may have angered an enemy too powerful for them to defeat.
