El Jefe rules the country, and has for a dozen years. Has ruled disastrously.
His early decision to expel every Muslim, his decision to send in the military to do so, the mutinies and desertions that followed, all had caused global economic disaster. With healthcare being ruined, the nation and world had suffered economic, health, and population collapse.
Of course there were those who fought against his rule and his "Provisional" Security Teams. They sought independence from his tyranny, though they hadn't issued any formal declaration, like the one made a couple of centuries before. But, like that time long ago, they were outgunned and out-organized. Eventually they might have prevailed as their predecessors did. But in the meantime they needed something or some place that would aid their resistance. (As their predecessors had.)
A few of them found a cabin lost in the woods. A house. A house between worlds.
A House Between Worlds is available here.
