Collateral Consequences

Collateral consequences are the additional legal, civil, and social penalties that automatically attach to a criminal conviction beyond the direct sentence, like prison or a fine. This novel tests the distance three children must go to avoid the drug cartel in South America, running toward the Capitol to deliver vital information to the U.S. government.

Collateral Consequences is Walter Blair's next novel, coming in 2027, right after COVID-19 RETRIBUTION. Its cover sets the scene: three children running toward the U.S. Capitol on a bright, clear day.
