Safe Spaces

Defying dictators has consequences.

Cat Chaotic, Kendra, Robert, Trent and Swamp are in a dark place, desperately fighting to pick up the pieces after the horrific inferno of events nearly shattered the band in Richard Uprising. In this chilling follow-up dystopian thriller, the band members once again find themselves in the crosshairs of Annabelle Ramirez’s tyrannical regime, but this time she unleashes a ruthless plan designed to tear them apart from within. Unlikely allies emerge from the shadows and seemingly offer the band a lifeline out of the abyss, but in a world where betrayal lurks behind every promise, can they really afford to trust any outsiders? Can they even trust themselves?

With enemies closing in, the band members forge new alliances that test old friendships and fray the very fabric of their existence. Will the band somehow bring themselves back from the brink of collapse, or will Annabelle finish them once and for all? Join the band of rebels as they navigate a treacherous path where every choice could mean salvation or lead to their destruction.

Safe Spaces is the second chapter in Patrick Silken’s electrifying Richard Uprising series and picks up shortly after Book One.

This story is a must-read for fans of near-term dystopian fiction, high-stakes thrillers, and stories of courage against impossible odds in a fictional world that all too frighteningly resembles our own.
