The Last Amendment

A well-choreographed terrorist attack thrusts the United States into depression, yet partisan gridlock in Washington will not relent, dashing any hope of recovery. With nothing to lose, retiring Representative Bart Scattercorn makes a radical last-ditch suggestion: permanently divide the country by ideology so that freedom might survive. To his surprise, and eventual lament, the notion takes root and a constitutional amendment is drafted which raises two entirely new nations - one purely conservative, one purely liberal - from America's ashes. From the midst of all this comes the diary of Bart's granddaughter Bee. A childhood illness cost Bee her hearing but left her with perception far beyond human understanding. Bee's journal entries, along with poignant letters to and from her famous grandfather, combine to chronicle not only the search for meaning in Bee's mysterious ability, but also the hopes and dangers of this second (perhaps not-so-unlikely) American revolution.
