Terrorist bombs blast the new casinos at La Guardia. USAF jets roar low over a devastated Queens. Riots and tear gas fill the ravaged streets of Park Slope. Warships blockade the East River. National guardsmen and marines assemble in Manhattan and Rhode Island, preparing to invade, as the President and the Governor of New York warn of another Cuba - all because, thirty years earlier, in a dramatic decision, the Supreme Court found in favor of the Native Americans of Long Island. To right the wrongs of centuries, it turned the whole island into a reservation called Mehtanawack. Into this battle to the death between two violently opposing social systems step eco-journalist John Kellis and photographer Jessica Begay. We know they have been sent to the island to conduct an undercover operation, but for which side? And are they even on the same side? This is the story of two people falling in love within the clash of two very different ideologies and social systems. It is a life-and-death struggle between two diametrically opposed political and economic creeds. It is a battle to the death that will shape the future of America, so the stakes are enormous.
