    About this ebook

    A well-planned attack on the U.S. leaves the Hawaiian Islands isolated. After enduring a high casualty first wave attack by a Chinese regime, the island regroups and is thrust into a power struggle between the various factions remaining. Power is non-existent and resources scarce. Using a civilian designed closed-loop technology named the "Kapu system," a Hawaiian philanthropist, Ha'a Klien, will attempt to use his family estate's resources to put the islands back together.
    A race for control of this new sustainable Hawaiian society is on. Inches from Martial law and a repeat of Hawaiian history, locals band together in resistance against a leftover military group that no longer answers to the U.S. Government. Every facet of the Hawaiian population will need to learn to work together to avoid a military coup.
    A war against the snatcher of lands, "Ku-kaili-moku," has begun again.

    Jason Bitzer

    Jason Bitzer has been a Lifeguard on the beach since 1999, working the last 10 years on Oahu's dangerous North Shore where he was awarded the Mayoral award for lifesaving merit in aiding in the Rescue of Professional surfer Evan Geiselman, at the world famous Pipeline. He cut his teeth writing as a contributor to Vice sports as well as writing feature scripts, such as ' 'In Deep" which made finals of various screenplay competitions such as the "California Film awards." Looking to challenge himself in long form storytelling he wrote his first novel of his ISO series "In The Wake Of Technology". The story encapsulates Hawaii's role in global affairs while showing what it would be like if the islands were cut off from the world during a major military conflict
