520    Star newsmaker Erica Sparks is in Bismark, North Dakota, 
       covering the first recall of a governor in that state 
       since 1921. Mary Bellamy, who is trying to unseat the 
       current governor, keeps talking about going through the 
       political process to gain more freedom for the state. She 
       seems peaceful and level-headed . . . but with other 
       secessionist groups making noise around the country, Erica
       can't help but wonder what Mary's goal really is.  Then 
       Erica receives a desperate call from a woman downstairs in
       the lobby of her hotel. Erica goes down to meet her and 
       discovers the woman in the ladies room with her throat 
       slit. There's obviously more going on here--and someone 
       doesn't want Erica looking below the surface.  Meanwhile, 
       Erica's marriage to Greg Underwood seems headed for 
       disaster . . . and her relationship with her teenage 
       daughter Jenny may not be far behind.  Erica feels a civil
       war looming in her own home, and all the signs indicate 
       that military action will be required in North Dakota. And
       then she discovers that the threat to all Americans is 
       even greater than anyone imagined. Can she find the 
       answers to save her family and her country in time?
