True Allegiance

“No,” said Brett. “You made you into a terrorist.”

“You’re free to get out at any time.”

Brett went silent. She started the engine. “For what it’s worth,” she said, looking straight ahead, “I’m sorry about your wife, General Hawthorne. I’m sorry for this country. I’m not sorry what happened to Prescott. None of that matters.”

“Where are we going?”

“I figure you’re the general. You pick.”

Brett thought for a moment. Then he looked to the horizon again, to the murky cloud of ash blotting out the rising stars. He set his jaw in a look Ellen would have recognized instantly as unshakable determination.

“Let’s head West,” he said. “I’m going home.”

About the Author

Ben Shapiro is editor-in-chief of DailyWire.com, as well as editor-at-large of Breitbart News. Shapiro is the author of six books, including the New York Times bestseller, Bullies: How the Left’s Culture of Fear and Intimidation Silences America (2012). Shapiro is also a nationally syndicated columnist since age 17, a graduate of UCLA and Harvard Law School, and the host of The Morning Answer on KRLA 870 in Los Angeles and KTIE 590 in Orange County.

Rush Limbaugh says Shapiro isn’t just “content to have people be dazzled by his brilliance; he actually goes out and confronts and tries to persuade, mobilize, motivate people.” Glenn Beck calls Shapiro a “warrior for conservatism, against those who use fear and intimidation to stifle honest debate. I’ve never known him to back down from a fight.” Sarah Palin says that Americans should “consider Ben’s advice about how we must stand up and push back twice as hard against this bullying.” Sean Hannity says to join Ben Shapiro and “fight back!” against liberal bullying. And Michelle Malkin says Shapiro is “infused with the indomitable spirit of his friend and mentor Andrew Breitbart.” Even the liberal Washington Post, in the aftermath of Shapiro’s devastating destruction of Piers Morgan on national television, conceded that Shapiro is a “foe of extraordinary polemical agility.”

“Provocative, intense, and about five minutes from becoming reality, Ben Shapiro’s True Allegiance is a riveting thriller about what happens when America falls apart. It’s not just a phenomenal thriller, it’s prophetic.”

–Ann Coulter, author of ten New York Times

bestsellers

“We all know Ben Shapiro for his keen intellect and his impeccable ability to articulate the principles that made America great. Now Ben has delved into the world of fiction in his book, True Allegiance—but is it really fictional? This is a must read novel in which we must ask ourselves, will we make a stand?”

–Lt. Col. Allen B. West (US Army, Ret.), Member, 112th US Congress

“A gutsy and gut-wrenching vision of an America coming apart at the seams—an America not so different from the one we’re living in right now. Ben Shapiro has used his deep understanding of current events to create a fictional world that could well be our world the day after tomorrow. It’s a scary story and just a little too real for comfort.”

–Andrew Klavan, screenwriter, Edgar Award-winning and New York Times

bestselling author of True Crime and Don’t Say A Word
