Are we truly living in a democracy?
Or is America transitioning from a republic to a juristocracy?
Joel Crosier, a full-blood Arapaho Indian, is about to find out.
In law school Crosier ferrets out the fact that when America bought the Louisiana Purchase from Napoleon, Napoleon and France had no title to it. Spending time and hundreds of thousands of dollars, Crosier tracks down the title and buys it from a Dutch banking house.
With that simple act, Joel holds the power to obtain for his people the title to all of North America lying between the Missouri River and the Rocky Mountains. Crosier wants to get the land back for his Native American people, whose ancestors possessed it.
To do that, Crosier teams up with the greatest trial lawyer in America, Jack Temple, who agrees to win the case by creating the "law of tomorrow." While Crosier wants a legal fight for the land, Temple has other ambitions: to use the Supreme Court-a court that is unelected and whose decisions have no appeal-to control the nation.
Two men, one case, two versions of the future splintering America politically and heading towards the destruction of democracy.
What will the verdict be?
