Bastion

The Republic is falling, and the call is coming from inside the house. Colonel Gideon Graves is a ghost. A man composed of Fallujah scars and the crushing weight of a thousand silent sacrifices, he has spent his life holding a line that most Americans don't even know exists. But when an encrypted "Condition Black" signal reaches his burner phone, the veteran warrior realizes his greatest battle isn't on a foreign shore, it's in the heart of Washington D.
C. The system has failed. The intelligence apparatus is compromised. General Orrin Blackwood and the Vice President are engineering a "Great Reset, " a coup disguised as national security that will turn the United States into a digital panopticon enforced by autonomous drone swarms. To stop them, Graves assembles Task Force Vanguard, a unit of discarded specialists, each broken by the very country they bled to defend.
They are "The Janitors" called in to clean up the mess made by the suits. Labeled as domestic terrorists and hunted by Agent Victor Kane's elite "Cleaners, " the team must operate in the shadows, moving from the Dismal Swamp to the Mediterranean to the secret tunnels beneath the Capitol. In a world where the algorithm is God and loyalty is a liability, Vanguard is the only thing standing between the Republic and the abyss.
They have no budget, no oversight, and no names. If they die, they stay dead. No flags. No funerals. Just the cold clarity of a silent pact.
