"A sniper opens fire on a crowded football stadium on the first day of the season. The crowd panics and stampedes. A thousand people die ... and the federal government immediately goes not only into gun-banning mode, but into a post-911-type security frenzy that ultimately brings the country FIST (Firearms Inspections Stop Terrorism) checkpoints and brutal demonization of gun owners. The alleged (and quickly deceased) sniper has conveniently used a "military-style assault weapon," and conveniently fits the profile every anti-gunner loves to hate. The loss of freedom looks unstoppable. But is it?
And that's merely the opening of Enemies Foreign And Domestic, the first novel by Matthew Bracken, a self-described "freedom addict." Unlike most freedom-movement novels, this one is loaded with action and populated by characters you'll believe, like, and identify with.

The novel at its heart is an exploration of the true meaning of patriotism and loyalty, in an era when government bureaucrats are increasingly becoming the "domesic enemies" we swore to defend the Constitution against.
