Terrifying mechanical creatures guarding the border, controlled by American citizens playing a video game ... It's fiction-for now.

After a contentious election in 2048, the president puts Red Draven's private company in charge of the American borders. Draven Labs establishes the infamous "Red Zone"-a new, perilous frontier patrolled by mechanical creatures engineered to mimic the very animals and insects of the natural world. Red Draven's invention, Civil Watch, an online game-turned-surveillance tool, sweeps the nation. Citizen gamers become virtual patrols, guiding the terrifying machines in the Red Zone while earning money, rank, and a sense of civic pride. But when two young hackers, Aiden and Gabby, uncover a chilling truth-that Draven Labs has begun testing lethal weaponry-they realize the game and Draven's mission have morphed into something far more sinister. They aim to dismantle Red Draven's empire before humanity is lost forever.
