Covenant City

Soon: Martial law declared. U.S. elections canceled. Congress and the courts dissolved. An audacious plan is underway to racially purify the land, one region at a time. In Richmond, Virginia the lights go out. The town is renamed Covenant City and remade as a model for a “homegrown heritage” white Christian nation. 

This is the story of a young white man who falls in with a cadre of multi-ethnic rebels. They enlist him to go into the city as a spy. Once there, to his surprise, a heritage survey uncovers a heritage from Jamestown settlers. Welcomed with special privileges, he has a front row seat to the rollout of this AI-managed ethno-nationalist state, building towards Covenant Day, when all rebels in the area are to be eliminated and the President arrives for the dedication of his gilded statue. That day looming, our hero faces a crucial decision: Accept a princely life in Covenant City or attempt to escape, warn his rebel friends and somehow strike back.
