Maneuvers

by Mark Wilkinson

Overview

As an international student, Jake Dawson finds himself in the middle of a political overthrow. The status quo is challenged, and the seditionists take control of the economic engines of society. Jake defies the shifting landscape, ignores the cancellation of his visa, and remains with his friends to stop the transformation of the foreign culture he's come to love.
A man of power and influence, with whom Jake shares a common interest, clashes with his ideology. Their crossing paths force Jake to challenge his moral values and decide how far into the dark conflict he will travel. He knows his lone journey will change the lives of those around him. Does he have the right to do so?
While he's aware his action may help his friends, he fails to see the drastic change he'll force upon of his own life. His maneuvering will shift not only the landscape of the country, but the history of their entire world.
