Description
United States of America, 2051 A.D.
It has been twenty years since Eustace Fargo's justice bill was passed. There are new weapons on the streets and vast city blocks rising to the sky, as the first human being sets out to visit another star system. New York, California and Texas cry out for autonomy, chafing against a federal government they feel has lost control.
Reeling from news of Chief Justice Fargo's death in service, the nation asks: has it all been worth it?
The third volume of the hit series exploring the history of 2000 AD's all-powerful "Judges."

CE Murphy began writing around age six, when she submitted three poems to a school publication, and has held the usual grab-bag of jobs seen in an authorial biography, including public library volunteer, archival assistant, cannery worker, and web designer.

When she was a child, Zina Hutton once jumped out of a window to escape dance class in the Virgin Islands.

Reviews
"Each story is quickly devoured, packed with twists and brutal political analogy. This is the rise of fascism, eerily familiar and terrifyingly plausible... this is the Justice Department as The Wire, and it really works." -- Starburst Magazine * Starburst Magazine *
"Challenging at times, yet extremely rewarding in the end." -- Pop Culture Bandit * Pop Culture Bandit *
"I enjoyed this book, although it made me nervous. I loved the conflict it caused in me. It's fast-paced and uncompromising, keeping true to the essence of the Judges." -- The British Fantasy Society * The British Fantasy Society *
