(Also available in paper as ISBN 1920741690 from Booksurge.com)
In a sufficiently hi-tech society numerous individuals are capable of mass destruction via nuclear or biological weapons. To survive, civilization requires a pervasive moral code limiting the use of technology, but in a fallen world this needs policing, and so do the police.
James IV, most Christian High King of an Ireland with a different history than ours is deposed in 1941 by a cabal of his nobles. Exiled to thinly-populated Irish North America, he and his cousins find unlikely romance, promote traditional honour, and counter genocidal high-tech schemes. Sergeant Brian McIlhargey carries on the fight in a later generation.
Can one family stand against the corrupt rulers of two worlds? What if one of its own members goes bad?
The Peace has three interwoven plots.
One follows the exploits of Sally and Lucy, well-educated Irish spies during WW II as they struggle with loyalties, personal spirituality, and the ethics of what they are asked to do by their control officer. When he decides they are expendible at about the same time they encounter the exiled king of another Ireland on another earth...
