Debtor Nation is a novel set in the not-too-distant future.
Society is run by the
Central Bank and its chief operating officer, Ragnor Wolfe, with few people possessing
the wealth and power of the nation.
Major cities have Bank enclaves where the
wealthy are housed and protected, with the rest of the population - the uncollectables
and other lower classes - living in shanty towns. Society is divided into clearly
defined castes, with the “financials” and the “administratives” comprising the elite
upper classes.
The Bank Security Guard, the “BSG”, has grown into a private army
which is better equipped and better funded than the country’s traditional military.
The Debtor Nation Movement, the “DNM”, has for years kept the general population
under control and through the leadership of the DNM, armed revolution has
been avoided. The second in command of the DNM, Ryan Noland, has been arrested
for the alleged murder of a BSG. The Bank is using the Noland case to place criminal
matters involving Bank property under the jurisdiction of the Bank’s arbitrators.
The BSG, and its leader, the brutal Ingmar Shteif, are actively covering up the slaughter
of nearly thirty civilians by BSG that occurred on the night of that incident. Colonel
Gregory Stone of the Texas National Guard senses that the nation is on the brink of a
bloody revolution.
Debtor Nation details these developments and the resulting
military conflict to save the country through the eyes of those who lived it.
