For Patriots' Dream: The Rising (Volume 1)

Zeke Luck, former Army Rangers sniper with 4 tours of duty behind him, reaches his breaking point as he realizes just how corrupt his government and his "old bastard Uncle Sam" have become. He echoes the feelings of many military vets who have sacrificed life, limb and sanity for a dubious cause. Zeke decides to mete out his own private retribution on "the mob of scoundrels” that inhabits the halls of congress and high level cabinet positions. About to pull the trigger, a flash of inspiration attributed to his one-quarter Navajo DNA bursts upon him. In a split-second his strategy changes. He will exact punishment upon his first target in Native American fashion. Zeke soon discovers he has started something far bigger than he had dreamed. A serendipitous chain of coincidences launches him and an unlikely alliance of young river runners, Native Americans and veterans down a wild river of adventure, romance, conspiracy and intrigue. The story is laced with American Indian lore and prophecies about America and her destiny.
