Thank you for showing interest in beta reading The Grim Alliance, The Infidel Books book #2! While this is book two, and the experience is better when the series is read in order, I will be looking for a few people who have not read The Divided Nation. So, feel free to fill out the form anyway! I will not be accepting every single applicant, however, but may the odds ever be in your favor. If you are accepted, I will send the manuscript and info email sometime during this week.

Deadline: March 20th. I can be flexible, but not by much, since I've got an editor scheduled.

Word count: 85,000.

Content: This is a war/thriller novel, so PG-13. Mild swearing, violence, no heavy sensual content.

ROUGH BLURB (of course, minor spoilers if you haven't read TDN):

The Second Civil War rages on and the crippled nation suffers under the United Nation’s power-thirsty rule. West Johnston has earned his mafia father’s trust while searching for hidden answers: who allows the gangs and illegals to ransack only certain towns? Why are the UN leaders being assassinated, and why can’t the killers be found? And if West can’t stop the Union from attacking D.C. in their last attempt to win the war, how can he stop his father?

Springtown remains one of the few townships left standing. Ganglord sons Simon and Nate are unable to aid the town, but another group of gangsters step in, preparing the people for winter. Rene’ Fisher is torn between fearing for Simon’s life and the upheaval taking place in her hometown. Can her father keep the peace? And will God have mercy on the allegiance the town must form with and unlikely candidate in order to survive? Or will Rene’s home burn like the rest of the world?
