Katy Gingrich is a college student by day and diner waitress. It's not an easy balancing act, but she's making it work. That is, until a gunman walks into the diner one night demanding money, and killing when he doesn't get what he's after. Katy is part of the carnage, among those shot and left for dead. But against the odds, she survives, and learns that she was shot over a case of mistaken identity and five million dollars in missing mob money. It's a hard road to recovery, but she gets out of the hospital with a new determination. She figures she paid in advance for that money with her pain, suffering, and loss, and she decides to go after it for herself. But wanting it and getting it are two different things. She'll need to fight off crooked cops, ruthless mobsters, local gangbangers, and an over-zealous FBI agent just to survive, much less grab the cash...

A revealing book about how government, law enforcement, and bureaucratic interests are seizing our property, our children, our savings, and our fundamental American rights—and how to fight back. Liberty and justice for all is the bedrock of American democracy, but has America betrayed our founders’ vision for the nation? In When They Come For You, New York Times bestselling author David Kirby exposes federal, state, and local violations of basic constitutional rights that should trouble every American, whether liberal, conservative, or libertarian. Free speech, privacy, protection from unreasonable search and seizure, due process, and equal protection under the law are rights that belong to every American citizen, but are being shredded at an alarming rate all across the country. Police and prosecutorial misconduct, overzealous bureaucrats with virtually unchecked power, unwarranted searches, SWAT-style raids on the homes of innocent Americans, crackdowns on a free press and the right to protest, removing children from their parents without cause, “debtors prisons," restricting freedom of health choice, seizing private assets for government profit, and much more demonstrate how deeply our rights and our national values are eroding. When They Come For You uses true stories of everyday citizens to reveal how our federal, state, and municipal governments, police, lawmakers, judges, revenue agents, unelected power brokers, and even government social workers are eviscerating our most fundamental liberties. And, it shows how people are fighting back—and winning.
