Sycamore Bay Rising
By Gary D. Clark
In a post-World War III America, one small town becomes the spark of a new revolution.
Three years after the people of Sycamore Bay defied a foreign occupation and ignited national change, the lakefront town faces a new and more cunning enemy. The Treaty of 2030 still binds American soil to Chinese control, and the embers of resistance are about to flare once more.
When war veteran TJ Benton spots a surveillance drone hovering above Lake Eufaula-the first in years-it signals the return of a shadow war. A traitor lurks in Washington, feeding intel to the Chinese regime. The new CCP commander, Wei Chen, is polished and strategic, and he's playing a long game with devastating stakes.
With a grieving community still healing from past losses, and a growing alliance of patriots ready to reclaim their homeland, TJ must rally old friends and new allies to expose a high-level mole and dismantle an AI-powered surveillance state-before the noose tightens again.
Part political thriller, part grassroots rebellion, Sycamore Bay Rising is a timely and gripping story of courage, sacrifice, and the power of ordinary people to stand against tyranny.
