In the year 2040, America faces divide. Terrorist assaults, racial conflicts and political opportunists threaten its very survival. A riveting, thought-provoking tale, Melting Point 2040 explores the human costs of an America growing apart - following intertwined lives of a young Mexican immigrant, a disconnected survival gaming fanatic, a University professor and others competing to resolve disputes on their terms. It's a different world. America's economic supremacy has been surpassed. Computer programs drive cars that shape around passengers. English is no longer the primary language in several of 52 states. With a second Great Depression embedded in the nation's mindset and many issues unresolved for generations, America's most divisive challenge since the Civil War is coming to full boil. America's future may depend on a reluctant hero.
