The US Government has been broken for years, so it wasn't surprising to see another government shutdown. This time would be different, however, when the state of California decides to secede, causing the thin bonds of statehood and family to be threatened. At the start of it all are three women- Daughters of the US Senate Majority Leader, they find their lives ripped apart as a consequence of a long-stagnated US government, increasingly corrupt local governments, and California's fight for independence from the United States. Looking to escape a difficult divorce, Anna decides to visit her sister, Sophie, in California. En route, she becomes entangled in a turf war in rural Wyoming between local farmers and a group of Native Americans who are using the disruption of law enforcement to take back their ancestral land. Meanwhile, Sophie struggles between loyalty to her father, a US Senator, and her husband, a US soldier who volunteers to defect and fight for California's independence. In Tennessee, Amber struggles to keep her family together as immigration control is given back to the states and her husband is hunted by a corrupt law enforcement officer. The Breaking Unity series follows the lives of people from across the United States as they struggle to adapt during and after the fall of the United States government. If the States were no longer United, to whom would you be loyal?
