In "Red Tide," the first Occupied Seattle novel by Chris Kennedy, China invades Seattle to use American citizens as leverage in a nuclear blackmail scheme aimed at reclaiming Taiwan. The United States had long promised to defend Taiwan, deterring China until now. Set in the near future, the novel explores the consequences of China's bold strategy to sideline the U.S. in their territorial ambitions. The fate of Seattle hinges on the actions of a downed F-18 pilot, a retired Navy SEAL, and a platoon of Army Rangers. Will their efforts be enough to reclaim the city and thwart China's plans?
