About this listen
Governments around the world cling to power, subjecting their citizens to more and more abuses.
The people are no longer satisfied by patriotism or duped by propaganda.
They demand freedom - by any means necessary.
Derek struggles to survive the most brutal military prison in the United States. He is interrogated and tortured by the CIA. Will he reveal the location of 1776 and his family?
Summer is left to care for her two small children and to repay the debt owed to 1776. She and her father participate in acts of domestic terror as enemies of the state and obligatory members of 1776. Will they repay their debt and rescue Derek from a maximum-security prison before it’s too late?
After narrowly escaping arrest by the FBI, Jacob Roth leaves his wife and returns home to Switzerland, with his son and his AI girlfriend in tow. Jacob struggles to satisfy his overbearing father and boss. His only joy comes from his relationship with his AI girlfriend, but his parents are adamantly opposed to the unnatural relationship. Jacob’s demanding job and new love leave little time for his troubled son. The lack of supervision leads to devastating consequences. Will Jacob finally find happiness and meaning, or will he succumb to resentment?
President Naomi Sutton and the Democratic Socialists control the House, the Senate, and the Presidency. She uses that power to pass sweeping legislation, making good on her campaign promises. But the new reforms have unintended consequences, giving new life to her enemies. Will she survive long enough to see her promise of the socialist utopia?
The world is teetering on the brink, between freedom and totalitarianism. It’s now or never.

Excellent conclusion to the series
Again focusing on the 4 main characters, Phil manages to bring the story together in a satisfying conclusion.
How does Derek, Summer, Naomi and Joshua do?
Is there any future for the country?
Ultimately does anyone come out of this with a positive outcome?
I'd highly recommend this book but definitely needs to be read in series order.

The Finale This Series Needed.
This is as satisfying a conclusion as you could ask for such a complex series. The author gave himself a huge task when bringing all the various story threads to a conclusion where they felt satisfying to the reader but also connected in the greater sense. Things go badly for all the characters of the series, as the title might suggest, but for the reader is enthralling and engrossing reading. I will say no more for fear of spoilers ruining the ending for those yet to get there but just know this was just what the series needed.
The narration is top quality once more, reaching the same heights as the previous instalments making for an enjoyable listening experience.

Enjoyable speculation
I have a very hard time believing that the scenario represented in this series is anywhere near likely to happen, but I have to admit that it did give me plenty to think about. I may not agree with the views of the characters in this series, in fact the 'free' world they espouse so much sounds rather dystopian to me, but I thought that the author made me believe that it was what these characters wanted.
But treating it as a work of fiction I have to say that it is very well written, with great characters and a very exciting plot and very inventive and nail-biting situations.
The narration is first class, the use of both male and female narrators really brings the story to life in a way that a single narrator can't.
I am going to return to my favourite soap box though for my final comment and say that I don't like this serial presentation of a story, I prefer ach book to be self contained rather than relying on the earlier books to make sense.
