Red Maple

By Caide Sundal

Freedom was lost. The fire never died. North America is one flag, one nation--by force. The United States has swallowed Canada whole. Cities are locked down, rebels hunted, hope choked out by drone patrols and jackboots on concrete. But in the ruins of Calgary, something still burns. A masked killer stalks the streets with nothing to lose but the memories of the dead. A teenage rebel paints truth on broken walls and can't tell if he's the future or the fallout. A soldier, once proud, is drowning in the blood of the orders he followed. A girl walks a razor's edge between her past and her cause, desperate to protect the ones she loves before the war swallows them whole. And behind it all, a general watches from a tower above the smoke, believing the only way to peace is absolute control. This is not a war of nations. It's a war of people--broken, angry, terrified. A war where betrayal comes easy, and survival comes at the cost of your soul. Red Maple is a story of resistance splintering under its own weight, where loyalty is a lie, and the line between hero and monster is drawn in ash.
