Phoenix Republic: the Lone Star Gambit Danielle Wedgeworth

Ordinary Americans - sisters overcoming the odds. A gripping novel that pierces the everyday reality bias we all have. The goal behind writing the novel is to tell a true-to-life story with action and emotional content in a believable way. The book answers what might it be like if western economies were to fail and life-or-death struggles in a changing world became the "New Normal". Three ordinary American sisters from Texas must cope with the destruction of their comfortable lives. They must survive the dangers of dramatic upheaval as they rediscover their faith amidst an economic tsunami affecting the United States and Europe. Following a collapse of the U. S. dollar, Kate, Megan, and Annie each struggle to overcome personal failings as they make their way back home to the Texas ranch where they grew up, and back to their core values. If an economic collapse was not enough, Americans must also contend with the rise of a profound level of oppression brought on by a statist political class, as well as a fundamental power shift in the Middle East. The situation is dire and freedom-loving Americans will be gravely tested if they wish to retain their freedom and their God-given rights.
