Set in an America where the future merges with the past, The King is betrayed by his closest friend, plunging the nation into a bloody civil war, spiralling to rival even the Great War itself...the war that ended the civilizations of the 21st Century. As the two sides collide, the King is cast into a desperate chase across America as Lexus dedicates every resource to the hunt. In the ensuing revolution friends and families are torn apart. But even amidst the death and destruction old flames are rekindled and passions reawakened.
