When the federal government collapses under the weight of a catastrophic war in Iran, a shattered economy, and a president whose arrogance drove America’s oldest allies to sever ties, one woman decides the states can no longer wait for Washington to save them.
New York Governor Elena Serrano stands before a nation in freefall and declares what no leader has dared to say: the United States, as constituted, is over. In its place, she proposes something unprecedented — the Empire Compact, a new continental government built from the wreckage of the old, organized into ten regional blocs and governed not by a single executive but by a council of equals.
But building a new nation means dismantling the one that came before. As Serrano and her inner circle race to stand up infrastructure, secure borders, and win over holdout states, forces within the old power structure conspire to stop them. FBI agents and journalists uncover truths that could unravel everything. Foreign powers circle. And the man who broke America isn’t finished yet.
Empire Rising is a political thriller about what happens after the fall — and whether the people who inherit the crisis have the courage to build something better.
