Retribution was to be meted out and with the help of a growing Resistance, reclaiming the country seemed more plausible by the day.

These stories were triggered by current events shortly after I published my first book, BB-39. I had planned to complete another long-delayed novel, but these stories could not be set aside. Finally, I gave up and started writing these stories...
