The Freeman Foundation, a global climate initiative led by the first lady, induces her cooperation with advanced Department of Defense projects. Meanwhile, the US government demands justice for a fallen political figure.
When Dee agrees to an unprecedented domestic military campaign, she gains a fresh awareness of what people with power do to those without it. When hidden alliances become known, Dee must decide what master she will serve as the world reaches the tipping point of war.
