The Last Republic: (Deseret Series Book 1)

By Ryan McBeth

In 1849, Brigham Young declared independence. In 2025, the United States declares war.

In the heart of the American West lies Deseret-a Mormon theocratic nation born of faith, isolation, and resilience. For nearly two centuries, it has stood as a testament to independence and religious devotion. But now, Deseret finds itself at the center of a global conflict, its survival threatened by the world's only remaining superpower: the United States.

When the US launches a military operation to dismantle Deseret's alliance with Iran, the battle-lines blur between morality, faith, and ambition. As American forces attack, the citizens of Deseret fight back with unyielding resolve, advanced weapons, and a belief that their cause is divine.

Amidst the chaos, an embedded journalist with the 101st Airborne wrestles with the human cost of war, while Deseret fighter pilot rises as a symbol of resistance. In the shadows, a Mossad courier uncovers secrets that could shift the balance of power, and a police lieutenant faces a moral reckoning that could determine the fate of his nation.

The Last Republic is a gripping tale of geopolitics, faith, and survival-a story where ideologies clash, loyalties are tested, and no one emerges unscathed. As the smoke clears, one question remains: How far will a nation go to protect its identity, and what price will it pay?
