Synopsis

In 2019, the United States is a changed nation. After a recent civil war and a rewritten Constitution, only forty-two states remain within what is now known as the Federated States of America. As President Meryl Montessori attempts to gain full control of a country riddled by violence, sociopathic FBI director, Beatrice Orange, begins to piece together a complex plot to overthrow the new government. On the international front, China and Russia are at war. A deadly, incurable virus hidden by the Russians in an ancient fortress must be located and destroyed before steadily advancing Chinese armies release it on an unsuspecting world. From Washington, D.C. the president deploys her eclectic Blue Battalion team to bring down the director and destroy the virus. After crime fighter Peter Hassel and street cop Rachael Rothburg survive an attempted assassination, they join eccentric scientist, Dr. Frank Stein, and other members of the Blue Battalion team to investigate Orange's plan. But as they begin to uncover seedy secrets, an adolescent alien life form with a reputation for interfering in human affairs prepares to make a reappearance. The Star-Spangled Triangle is the story of a new nation and its struggles to survive as a startling future history unfolds and a team of great minds attempts to bring down an evil leader.
