The island nation of Lemuria sits alone in the middle of the North Pacific. Lemuria has long evaded the squabbling of the major world powers by staying out of their way, but no longer.
The young King Austin is pioneering a new path for his country by declining a U.S. security pact and signing a trade agreement that cuts out and infuriates the major world powers. He is striking out not just for independence, but also for the power to keep it.
In a few short weeks the paradise that was Lemuria is struck by terrorist attacks, riots, and is thrust onto the world stage. Nuclear codes are stolen from Marisa Snow, an agent at a peace organization. Her boss, Oman Dariff is determined to get them back at any cost. A mysterious Captain blackmails Telean Marvel into servitude.
Quickly it becomes clear that these people and events are entwined in a conspiracy that may threaten the very sovereignty of Lemuria. The country is crumbling and King Austin must scramble to save it while his citizens must choose between their country and their loved ones.
