The Moment After 2: The Awakening
In The New World Order, who can you trust? The government? Ragtag militia? Religious "fanatics"? After a dramatic escape from death row, former FBI agent Adam Riley reunites with his friend and mentor Jacob Krause leader of The Way, and his small remnant of Christians. Little do they know the forces out for their destruction. Global Alliance leader Commander Fredericks has forced Adam's former partner Charles Baker to hunt them down while a ragtag militia, led by "Captain" Jackson, spy on them for their own gain. As events lead to an explosive confrontation, all will be forced to an awakening of the real struggle... for their very souls.
