action-packed, provocative trilogy about the second American Civil War
to a stunning and stirring close in The Last Full Measure.

But that freedom comes with considerable costs, from Danny's disturbing flashbacks to the war, to the Brotherhood of the White Eagle, whose "security" for Freedom Lake looks more like outright thuggery. After Danny makes a shocking discovery about the Brotherhood's final aims, he and his friends lead a group of townspeople on a dangerous journey across a ravaged Idaho, hoping to build a better society of their own, and fulfill the dreams they had in what once was the United States.

The Lifeboat Clique by Kathy Parks
Action/Adventure
Some people might say
that Denver had a death wish. Why else would she have dared to sneak
into a Malibu beach party where she’d be surrounded by enemies, namely
including her ex-BFF Abigail? Oh yeah. Croix. Denver never
thought in a million years he’d ask her out, but who was she to question
this miracle of fate? Well, that wasn’t the only surprise fate had in
store. During the party a tsunami hit the coast of California,
wiping out everything in its path. Denver and a handful of others
escaped death by holding onto the roof of the house and were swept out
to sea. Of course, one of her fellow castaways was none other than
Abigail, who could barely stand the sight of her. Now that she’s
floating in the ocean, stuck on a small boat with the most popular kids
in school and waiting to be rescued, Denver wonders what might kill her
first-dehydration, sunstroke, or the girl she used to think of as a
sister?
