When Donald Trump refused to concede the presidential election, the United States became a nation divided. With millions believing Trump's claims that the election was rigged by Joe Biden and the Democrats, the threat of a civil war loomed large.

But what would have happened if the civil unrest had gone even further than the attack on the Capitol on January 6, 2021?

Cut & Run is a thrilling political novel which imagines an alternative, but very plausible, reality in the months that followed Trump's electoral defeat. In this fast-paced and intriguing book, thousands of previously loyal Americans decide to cut and run - severing their ties with the United States and taking their money with them to Europe.

Author Phil Sills considers what would have happened if the Attorney General of New York had sent the state police to arrest Trump on criminal charges, potentially ending his hopes of returning to power forever.

Tipped off by his allies, Trump finds himself at a crossroads - does he stay and face the music in the United States or head to Russia to beg Vladimir Putin for political asylum? And what will his loyal supporters do when they have to make a choice between the president they have and the one they actually want?
