Summary In the wake of a nuclear war, the totalitarian system known as COMUS has restored order in a shattered America. COMUS controls every aspect of American life, from communications to transportation to law enforcement, but cracks are beginning to show: rumours of a rebellion in California are brewing, and COMUS' leadership is ageing. History is at a crossroads, and the man who will decide the outcome is a washed-up actor named Howard Rohan. Leading a troupe of theatre players to perform in the heart of rebel territory, Howard's true mission is to gather intelligence on a device which could bring down COMUS. But Rohan finds himself slipping between his roles as a double agent and supposed revolutionary sympathiser, to the point where even he isn't sure where he stands. As America edges closer to its reckoning, Rohan will need to decide who he's been lying to: the rebels, COMUS, or himself.
