Six characters, unknown to each other, tell six different stories of the resistance against the second Trump administration. The resistance to the administration's immigrant deportation policies and the public outcry following the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti at the hands of federal agents.

The economic meltdown precipitated by the Trump economic policies and the surge in unemployment due to AI workforce efficiencies only furthers the desperation of all involved. Throw in another unnecessary war and the resulting turmoil to the world economy, and the carnage grows by the day. Identified by their motivation and actions in the resistance - the Idealist, the Agitator, the Pragmatist, the Organizer, the Leader, and the Assassin - each represents and embodies that part of the amorphous movement to which they all belong.

Each character tells their story during the days leading up to the massive country-wide protests on the 4th of July 2026, that will define the history of the United States, and the history of our lives, for decades to come.

American Carnage is at once provocative and thought provoking, and exactly the kind of novel the current administration wishes would die in the shadows.
