It’s another night in Santa Fe for horse breeder Hub Johnson when he walks into a hotel ballroom to attend a party hosted by Anton Gorbacheck, the leader of the Homeland. The year is 2055 and the world’s supply of oil was squandered thirty years earlier. The United States no longer exists and the state of New Mexico is run by the Green Party, an authoritarian dictatorship intent on expelling all immigrants who are a threat to the purity and integrity of the state.
At the party, Hub is stunned to see Olivia Wright seated at the head table next to the leader of the Homeland. Three years earlier Hub met Olivia at a horse sale and had fallen deeply in love. On the day they were to leave for Hub’s ranch to begin their life together, Olivia disappeared without a trace. Her sudden reappearance in Hub’s life reopens old wounds and sets Hub on a journey that will reveal his dark past as a hired killer and his unending search for the three men who killed his parents when he was ten years old.
When Olivia and her new husband Landry Wright are arrested by the Homeland for engaging in unauthorized political activity, Hub reunites with Olivia, forging a temporary deal with Anton that saves Olivia but leaves Landry in prison. Searching for a way to help her husband, Olivia tries to save Landry from almost certain death at the hands of the Green Party without destroying her rekindled love for Hub. As the love between Hub and Olivia deepens, the choices they are forced to make changes their lives forever.
