Description

When Bill Fulton arrived in Alaska, he was filled with optimism and big dreams.

When he left, it was under FBI escort.  Bill was Army Infantry. When his knees gave out, he opened the Drop Zone, a military surplus store in Anchorage, and started hiring fellow vets.

Sharpshooting hippies, crew-cutted fundamentalists, PTSD sufferers—all seeking purpose and direction.

Alaska gave it to them.  The Last Frontier is vast. The perfect refuge for fugitives and the perfect place for vets itching for a mission, Alaska is a giant icebox full of people either running to or away from something.

More than 400 fugitives would meet Bill and company on the wrong side of a gun, and he would learn many lessons along the way—like even tiptoeing through subzero snow can get you shot, and removing a gun from the butt crack of a 300-pound man is just as fun as it sounds.  Bill was enjoying the ride until, one day, the FBI asked him to go undercover, and his road forked.

Schaeffer Cox was a sovereign citizen who believed no government had authority over him and a private militia commander amassing an arsenal and plotting to kill judges and law enforcement officers.

Bill's mission: to take down Cox and his militia without a shot being fired.  The Blood of Patriots traverses a wide swath of rugged territory.

Raucously funny and stark, it depicts men, once brothers in arms serving their country, who now find themselves on opposite sides of those arms in a deadly test of the intricacies of liberty, the proper role of government, and the true meaning of patriotism.

It offers a witty and unsettling look at political rhetoric gone haywire and a movement the FBI considers the single greatest threat to law enforcement in the nation—all set in the beautiful, terrifying landscape of our 49th State.
